Swift and effective implementation of the Pact on Migration and Asylum[1] is a top priority for the Commission.
The obligation for Member States to establish national implementation plans stems from Article 84 of the Asylum and Migration Management Regulation[2], which specifies that ‘by 12 December 2024, each Member State shall, with the support of the Commission and relevant EU bodies, offices and agencies, establish a national implementation plan setting out the actions and the timeline for their implementation’.
In the common implementation plan presented on 12 June 2024, the Commission invited Member States to share their draft plans by October 2024 to support this overall process. Almost all Member States submitted their draft national implementation plans by that date.
The Commission is engaging in dialogue with all Member States to support the development and implementation of their national implementation plans.
The Commission will inform the Parliament and the Council about the state of play of the common implementation plan and the national implementation plans on a six-monthly basis, in line with its obligations under the asylum and Migration Management Regulation.
