The Commission welcomes the result of today’s vote in the European Parliament, endorsing the political agreement on the Pact on Migration and Asylum.
The Pact sets the stage for a fairer, more efficient, and more sustainable framework to manage migration. This achievement shows that the EU can find common European solutions to European challenges.
Next steps
The Council is now due to formally endorse the Pact.
The Commission emphasises the importance of full and timely implementation of the Pact, with plans to present a Common EU Implementation Plan, together with EU agencies.
