REGULATION (EU) 2024/1350 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 14 May 2024
establishing a Union Resettlement and Humanitarian Admission Framework, and amending Regulation (EU) 2021/1147
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 78(2), points (d) and (g), 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),
Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions (2),
Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure (3),
Whereas:
(1) |
In its conclusions on ‘Taking action to better manage migratory flows’ of 10 October 2014, the Council acknowledged that, while taking into account the efforts carried out by Member States affected by migratory flows, all Member States should give their contribution to resettlement in a fair and balanced manner. |
(2) |
This Regulation is based on the full and inclusive application of the United Nations Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees of 28 July 1951, as supplemented by the New York Protocol of 31 January 1967 (the ‘Geneva Convention’). |
(3) |
A Union Resettlement and Humanitarian Admission Framework (the ‘Union Framework’) should be established to complement other legal pathways. The Union Framework should offer the most vulnerable third-country nationals or stateless persons in need of international protection access to a durable solution in accordance with Union and national law. |
(4) |
On 19 September 2016, the United Nations (UN) General Assembly urged States to scale up resettlement efforts and envisaged a comprehensive refugee response framework in which States aim to provide resettlement places and other legal pathways on a scale that would enable the annual resettlement needs identified by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to be met. The Global Compact on Refugees adopted by the UN General Assembly on 17 December 2018 provides that voluntary contributions will be sought from States to establish or enlarge the scope, size, and quality of resettlement programmes. |
(5) |
In its communication of 13 May 2015 on a European Agenda on Migration, the Commission set out the need for a common approach to granting protection to displaced persons in need of protection through resettlement. |
(6) |
In its Recommendation to the Member States of 8 June 2015 on a European Resettlement Scheme, the Commission recommended that resettlement should be based on an equitable distribution key. This was followed by conclusions of the Representatives of the Governments of the Member States meeting within the Council of 20 July 2015 to resettle, through multilateral and national schemes, 22 504 persons in clear need of international protection. The resettlement places were distributed among Member States and Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland in accordance with the commitments set out in the Annex to those conclusions. |
(7) |
On 15 December 2015, the Commission addressed a Recommendation for a voluntary humanitarian admission scheme with Turkey to the Member States and associated States, recommending that participating States admit persons displaced by the conflict in Syria who are in need of international protection. |
