TEXT LETTER

Dear Ms Mariacarmela Ribecco (Italy), Alessandra Boga (Italy), Siyamack Sohrabmanesh (Italy), Rebecca Rouge (France), Maria Petrarca (Italy), Paola D'Adderio (Italy), Stuart Russell (France), Jutta Koebernick (Germany), Elaine Rodger (UK), John Burke (USA), Uli V.

Thank you for your e-mail of the 24 March addressed to President Von der Leyen, the contents of which have been duly noted. I was asked to reply on her behalf.

Please let me assure you that the EU attaches great importance to the migration situation at EU external borders. The EU expects the authorities of Member States at external borders to live up to their commitments with regard to the migration situation and take the necessary political decisions.

The EU funding also contributes to the provision of basic accommodation of refugees and migrants in temporary reception centres as well to the provision of water and sanitation, food and non-food items, improved access to primary and secondary health care, protection monitoring, social ohesion activities, protection and support to unaccompanied minors and children.

The EU will continue supporting Member States in building effective migration management and a functioning asylum system, respecting human rights and European and international standards. We will remain actively engaged on this matter and will continue monitoring the situation on the ground closely in cooperation with international humanitarian partners present on the ground.

I refer you the web-site of the Directorate General for Migration and Home Affairs (DG HOME) which contains the relevant legislation and policy documents on this issue: http://ec.europa.eu/dgs/home-affairs/ and I trust that the above references will give you an overview of the comprehensive nature of policies and actions underway in the field of migration.

Yours sincerely,

Cecilia Verkleij

Deputy Head of Uni
