COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 118/2014

of 30 January 2014

amending Regulation (EC) No 1560/2003 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 343/2003 establishing the criteria and mechanisms for determining the Member State responsible for examining an asylum application lodged in one of the Member States by a third-country national

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 604/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 establishing the criteria and mechanisms for determining the Member State responsible for examining an application for international protection lodged in one of the Member States by a third-country national or a stateless person (1), and in particular Articles 4(3), 6(5), 8(6), 16(4), 21(3), 22(3), 23(4) and 24(5), Article 29(1) and (4), Article 31(4), Article 32(1) and (5), and Article 35(4) thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

By Commission Regulation (EC) No 1560/2003 (2) a number of specific arrangements needed for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 343/2003 (3) were adopted.

 

(2)

In June 2013 a Regulation (EU) No 604/2013 was adopted, recasting Regulation (EC) No 343/2003. A number of further specific arrangements should be established for the effective application of Regulation (EU) No 604/2013.

 

(3)

In order to increase the efficiency of the system and improve the cooperation between national authorities, the rules regarding the transmission and processing of requests for the purpose of taking charge and taking back, the requests for information, the cooperation on reuniting family members and other relatives in the case of unaccompanied minors and dependent persons, as well as carrying out of transfers, need to be amended.

 

(4)

A common leaflet on Dublin/Eurodac, as well as a specific leaflet for unaccompanied minors, a standard form for the exchange of relevant information on unaccompanied minors, uniform conditions for the consultation and exchange of information on minors and dependent persons, a standard form for the exchange of data before a transfer; a common health certificate, of uniform conditions and practical arrangements for the exchange of information on a person’s health data before a transfer, are not provided for in Regulation (EC) No 1560/2003. Consequently, new provisions should be added.

 

(5)

Regulation (EU) No 603/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) replaces Council Regulation (EC) No 2725/2000 (5) and introduces changes to the Eurodac system. Therefore, Regulation (EC) No 1560/2003 should be adapted in order to properly reflect the interaction between the procedures laid down in Regulation (EU) No 604/2013 and the application of Regulation (EU) No 603/2013.

 

(6)

Regulation (EC) No 767/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council (6) provides for rules on the facilitation of application of Regulation (EU) No 604/2013. Consequently, the uniform conditions for preparation and submission of requests to take charge of applicants should be amended to include rules on the use of Visa Information System data.

 

(7)

Technical adaptations are necessary in order to respond to the evolution of the standards applicable and the practical arrangements for using the electronic transmission network set up by Regulation (EC) No 1560/2003 to facilitate the implementation of Regulation (EU) No 604/2013.

 

(8)

Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (7) should apply to processing carried out pursuant to this Regulation.

 

(9)
