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 and Article 77(2)(a), (b), (d) and (e) 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),

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. |
