Comments on the European Commission Proposal to recast the Reception Conditions Directive

These comments outline ECRE's views on the European Commission proposal to recast the Reception Conditions Directive.

Many of the amendments proposed would contribute to the further approximation of national reception conditions on the basis of higher standards, in particular by closing outstanding legal gaps which have allowed Member States to interpret the Directive in a restrictive manner. ECRE urges the European Parliament to maintain the positive elements of the Commission proposal, while at the same time introducing further clarifications where necessary.
