The Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs adopted the report by Renate SOMMER (EPP, DE) on the draft Council decision on the conclusion of the Agreement between the European Union and the Republic of Turkey on the readmission of persons residing without authorisation.
Given that the signature of the readmission agreement would make a significant contribution to curbing illegal immigration into the European Union via Turkish territory, the committee recommended the European Parliament to give its consent to the conclusion of the Agreement.
