Summary

Generated

The proposed regulation allows EU member states to temporarily derogate from standard asylum procedures when a non-EU country uses migratory flows to destabilize the bloc. It affects national asylum authorities and border agencies by enabling stricter border procedures and extended registration timelines. The file, proposed by the Commission in late 2021, has lapsed or been withdrawn.
