Asylum procedures
at the borderEuropean Implementation Assessment
In April 2020, the European Parliament's Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE) launched an implementation report on
Article 43 of Directive 2013/32/EU on common procedures for granting andwithdrawing international protection (Asylum Procedures Directive), covering asylum procedures at the border or transit zone of a Member
State. Erik Marquardt (Greens/EFA, Germany) was appointed rapporteur. Implementation reports by European Parliament committees are routinelyaccompanied by European Implementation Assessments, drawn up by the Ex-Post Evaluation Unit of the European Parliament's Directorate-General
for Parliamentary Research Services (EPRS). Beyond in-house research, this European Implementation Assessment is based ontwo external research papers: i) a legal assessment and ii) a comparative country assessment covering seven Member States. It
assesses the implementation of Article43 of the Asylum Procedures
Directive on the basis of its effectiveness, fundamental rights - including procedural rights - compliance, efficiency, and coherence with the aims of
the Asylum Procedures Directive and the Common European AsylumSystem as a whole. It concludes that uniform and fair asylum procedures at the European Union border have not been achieved due to patchy
implementation also caused by lack of clarity in the underlying EU legal framework. A number of recommendations are made to address the shortcomings identified in future legal and pract ical arrangements for border procedures.AUTHORS OF THE OPENING ANALYSIS (Part 1)

IExecutive summary
European Union Member States have committed themselves to offering protection to those who have to leave their home country to seek safety from persecution or serious harm (see Chapter 1).The international standard
in the matter is the 1951Geneva Convention on the protection of
refugees. All Member States are party to the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and therefore subject to the jurisdiction of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). The ECHR contains a number of provisions which are applicable to asylum applicants, notably leading to the prohibition on forcing refugees or asylum-seekers to return to a country in which they are liable to be subjected to torture or to inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment (non-refoulement principle). At EU level, the right to asylum is enshrined in theEU Charter of Fundamental Rights
(Articles 18 and 19). Through the Common European Asylum System (CEAS), the EU has developed legal and policy instruments for the management of asylum in the EU that apply from the moment someone has expressed an intention to apply for international protection on EU territory until the moment the application has been recognised, or rejected upon appeal, at which stage the individual becomes eligible for return. The CEAS in cludes common procedures for granting and withdrawing international protection, laid down in the Asylum Procedures Directive (APD). 1The main aim of the
APD is for every person in need of international protection to have access to a legally safe and efficient procedure and to an individual examination of their claim according to equal standards. 2 Article 43 of the APD allows for border procedures: When applications for international protectionare made at the border or in a transit zone of a Member State prior to a decision on the entry of the
applicant, Member States can provide for admissibility and/or substantive examination procedures at these locations. Furthermore, the directive allows for the possibility to apply border procedures in transit zones or in proximity to borders in the event of large numbers of arrivals. The APD was to be transposed into national law by 20 July 2015. While Article 50 of the APD provides for regular reporting, the European Commission has yet to publish an implementation report. Several pieces of information are available from the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, 3Council
of Europe, 4European Migration Network (EMN),
5European Asylum Support Office (EASO),
6 European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA), 7 non-governmental organisations and academic research. Based on these sources, it is clear that only some Member States apply the border procedure in law and/or fact. At the same time , among those that do apply the border procedure, national practices regarding the scope, time limits, use of detention and procedural guarantees accorded to applicants diverge widely. The quality and fundamental rights compliance of decisions taken in those Member States which have seen a high influx of applicants has beenparticularly criticised. In the meantime, the Commission tabled a proposal for a reform of the APD in
2016, which envisaged its transformation into a regulation, to bring a higher level of harmonisation

II among the Member States. 8 At that time, no European Commission impact assessment of the APD was provided. As interinstitutional agreement could not be reached on this proposal, 9 theCommission decided to amend it
10 as part of the Pact on Migration and Asylum, 11 put forward in September 2020. Again, no Commission impact assessment was provided. Meanwhile, the European Parliament commenced work on an implementation report, focused specifically on Article 43 of the APD. In April 2020, the European Parliament's Committee on CivilLiberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE)
appointed Erik Marquardt (Greens/EFA, Germany) as rapporteur. 12 Implementation reports by European Parliament committees are routinely accompanied by European Implementation Assessments, drawn up by the Ex-Post Evaluation Unit of the European Parliament's Directorate-General for Parliamentary Research Services (EPRS). This European Implementation Assessment (EIA) was carried out by means of desk research, relying primarily on international and EU institutional sources as well as contributions from practitioners, academics and non-governmental organisations (NGOs). In addition, this EIA is based on two external research papers: i) a legal assessment and ii) a comparative country assessment covering seven Member States. It assesses the implementation of Article43 of the Asylum Procedures
Directive on the basis of its effectiveness, fundamental rights - including procedural rights - compliance, efficiency, and coherence with the aims of the APD and the CEAS as a whole. On this basis, the EIA puts forward recommendations regarding future legal and practical arrangements at sea, land and air borders, their scope (on admissibility and/or on the substance) and length of procedures, exemptions, the applicable fundamental rights and procedural safeguards, thetreatment of minors and how to deal with large numbers of arrivals. To finalise this EIA between July
and October 2020, the EIA focuses on the most pertinent issues and is limited to the analysis of seven
Member States. It should be noted that the EIA was performed under several constraints, including the lack of comprehensive data, the lack of a Commission evaluation of the transposition and application of the APD, and the lack of Commission impact assessments of its subsequent proposals on the matter. On the basis of the in-house research and externalised research papers mentioned above, conclusions are drawn regarding the implementation ofArticle 43 APD (see Chapter 2). In terms of
effectivene ss, as previously mentioned, the APD aims at achieving uniformity in procedures across the EU. However, important differences remain between Member States with regard to the concept and scope of the border procedure, accompanying restrictions of liberty and procedural guarantees. On the one hand, EU legislation leaves Member States too much discretion in these areas. On the other hand, it is not properly evaluated by the Commission in cooperation with EASO and the FRA on the basis of the practical situation on the ground, nor comprehen sively enforced by the Commission despite clearly identified violations, of the right to liberty, the prohibition of refoulement, t he right to asylum and the right to an effective remedy. Infringement procedures have been launched against certain Member States for non-compliance with various aspects of the APD, 8European Commission, Proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a common

Asylum procedures at the border
III but not against other countries with reported violations. Moreover, infringement procedures take time, during which certain Member States have continued to violate the asylum acquis. This touches upon more general problems with the lack of compliance with EU values in a number of Member States and the need to strengthen the EU's toolbox in this regard. The main fundamental rights affected by the border procedure are the prohibition of torture and inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment (Article 4 EU Charter), the right to liberty andsecurity (Article 6 EU Charter), the right to asylum (Article 18 EU Charter), protection in the event of
removal, expulsion or extradition (Article 19 EU Charter), the rights of the child (Article 24 EU Charter) and the right to an effective remedy (Article47 EU Charter), as well as the freedom of
movement and prohibition of collective expulsions (Articles 2 and 4 of Protocol No 4 to the ECHR). 13 In addition, specific principles and procedural guarantees for applicants have been laid down in Chapter II of the APD. The systematic and extended use of (de facto) detention in the context of border procedures is not in line with the right to liberty enshrined in Article 6 of the EU Charter.Procedural guarantees provided for in the APD, in particular the right to information, legal assistance
and interpretation, are not or only restrictively applied in practice. Vulnerable applicants, including
unaccompanied minors, contin ue to be subject to border procedures and held in detentionfacilities, raising questions as regards compliance with Article 24(2) of the EU Charter. The short time
limits to lodge and decide on appeals, the lack of suspensive effect of appeals in certain countries,as well as the difficult access to quality legal aid, raise concerns as to compliance with Article 47 of
the EU Charter. The difficulty in accessing the territory and the asylum procedure, as well as the use
of the fiction of non-entry in the context of border procedures, may in certain circumstances undermine the right to asylum under Article 18 of the EU Charter, the principle of non-refoulement under Article 19 of the EU Charter, and the right to an effective remedy under Article 47 of the EUCharter.
An assessment of the efficiency of the border procedure is difficult to make in the absence of a full
picture of the exact financial costs of operation of such procedures. Related studies suggest, however, that the costs of border management and control are significant, as a result of which the costs of the implementation of Article 43 APD may also be considerable and probably disproportionate, given that its objectives are not being achieved. Beyond administrative costs, border procedures entail significant human cost for the individuals affected by its application. The studies also suggest that asylum-seekers subject to border procedures are exposed to the harmful effects of deprivation of liberty in inadequate border detention facilities. They furthermore suffer due to their limited access to information and legal representation throughout the border procedure. Efficiency may further be affected in the case of a high influx of applicants.In terms of coherence,
the framework for border procedures under the APD is complex and unclear, in part due to the various cross-references to other provisions of the APD and the application of other CEAS instruments. In particular, it is unclear whether an assessment under the D ublin procedure may also take place when an application is lodged under the border procedure. Furthermore, the APD is fraught with ambiguity with regard to the applicable reception regime of applicants under a border procedure. Neither the APD nor the recastReception Conditions
Directive 2013/33/EU (RCD) provide guidance to Member States as to where and under which conditions asylum applicants can be accommodated. On the basis of the research conducted, this EIA puts forward a number of recommendations as regards future legal and practical arrangements for asylum procedures at the border and in transit 13See also FRA, Migration: Key Fundamental Rights Concerns - Quarterly Bulletin 4, 2020; as well as J. Bast et al., Human
rights challenges to European migration policy, REMAP study of 27 October 2020, in which the authors also analyse non-
discrimination.EPRS | European Parliamentary Research Service
IV zones (see Chapter 3). The recommendations are mainly taken from the two external researchpapers, which are reproduced in full in Part 2 and Part 3 of this EIA. As pointed out by both external
research papers, it should be noted that some shortcomings are inherent to the legal framework; more effective implementation alone will not resolve the problems. Importantly, access to asylum procedures should be ensured at all times and at all external borders of the European Union. Push backs at the external and internal borders of the Member States should be prohib ited. The border procedure should be clearly defined in EU law as a procedure in which asylum-seekers have not been granted entry to the territory. It should also be made clear in EU law that, as a general rule, border procedures may not be used at internal borders. EU law should further limit the applicability of border procedure. The border procedure should only be resorted to following an individual assessment of the circumstances of the case, including an examination of potential special reception and proceduralneeds. In case of a return to the country of origin or transit, the safety of such return is to be ensured.
The asylum applications of (unaccompanied) children and asylum applicants with special (reception and/or procedural) needs should not be processed in a border procedure. Border procedures may be used to take decisions under the Dublin Regulation, but only if there is a significant risk of absconding, in accordance with Article 28 of the Dublin Regulation. The border procedure may be made more effective through adequate funding, training of border management personnel - who have to adhere to fundamental rights in their daily operational work, 14 and appropriate time limits to ensure that the determining authority is able to gather all necessary information and can take a careful asylum decision. Member States need to collect and transmit statistics on the scope of their border procedures.quotesdbs_dbs29.pdfusesText_35[PDF] 1 Fiche pédagogique Exploiter en classe le film - Musée national de
