The European Parliament adopted by 372 votes to 124 with 54 abstentions, a legislative resolution on the proposal for a Council decision establishing provisional measures in the area of international protection for the benefit of Italy, Greece and Hungary.
In view of the very urgent situation and the need to relieve it without further delay, Parliament approved the Commission proposal without amendment.
Parliament informed the Council that this approval was without prejudice to its position that it would subsequently take on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a crisis relocation mechanism and amending Regulation (EU) No 604/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 establishing the criteria and mechanisms for determining the Member State responsible for examining an application for international protection lodged in one of the Member States by a third-country national or a stateless person.
