REGULATION (EU) 2019/818 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL

of 20 May 2019

on establishing a framework for interoperability between EU information systems in the field of police and judicial cooperation, asylum and migration and amending Regulations (EU) 2018/1726, (EU) 2018/1862 and (EU) 2019/816

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 16(2), Article 74, Article 78(2)(e), Article 79(2)(c), Article 82(1)(d), Article 85(1), Article 87(2)(a) and Article 88(2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),

After consulting the Committee of the Regions,

Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure (2),

Whereas:

 

(1)

In its Communication of 6 April 2016 entitled Stronger and Smarter Information Systems for Borders and Security, the Commission underlined the need to improve the Union's data management architecture for border management and security. The Communication initiated a process towards achieving interoperability between EU information systems for security, border and migration management, with the aim to address the structural shortcomings related to those systems that impede the work of national authorities and to ensure that border guards, customs authorities, police officers and judicial authorities have the necessary information at their disposal.

 

(2)

In its Roadmap to enhance information exchange and information management including interoperability solutions in the Justice and Home Affairs area of 6 June 2016, the Council identified various legal, technical and operational challenges in the interoperability of EU information systems and called for the pursuit of solutions.

 

(3)

In its Resolution of 6 July 2016 on the strategic priorities for the Commission Work Programme 2017 (3), the European Parliament called for proposals to improve and develop existing EU information systems, address information gaps and move towards their interoperability, as well as proposals for compulsory information sharing at EU level, accompanied by the necessary data protection safeguards.

 

(4)

In its conclusions of 15 December 2016 the European Council called for work to continue on delivering interoperability of EU information systems and databases.

 

(5)

In its final report of 11 May 2017, the high-level expert group on information systems and interoperability concluded that it was necessary and technically feasible to work towards practical solutions for interoperability and that interoperability could, in principle, both deliver operational gains and be established in compliance with data protection requirements.

 

(6)

In its Communication of 16 May 2017 entitled Seventh progress report towards an effective and genuine Security Union, the Commission set out, in line with its Communication of 6 April 2016 and the findings and recommendations of the high-level expert group on information systems and interoperability, a new approach to the management of data for borders, security and migration whereby all EU information systems for security, border and migration management were to be interoperable in a manner fully respecting fundamental rights.

 

(7)

In its Conclusions of 9 June 2017 on the way forward to improve information exchange and ensure the interoperability of EU information systems, the Council invited the Commission to pursue the solutions for interoperability proposed by the high-level expert group.
