".
It is essential that the European Union adopts coherent measures to increase effectiveness in the area of border security, without impinging on the competences of the Member States.
I welcome this proposal for a regulation, ensuring uniform application in the Member States of the requirement systematically to stamp the travel documents of third-country nationals when they cross the EU’s external borders. This measure will respond to the need to be able to check the date on which a person from a third country crossed the external border, and will make it possible to verify how long a third-country citizen has been in EU territory and whether or not the person is there illegally.
Recasting the Common Manual of External Borders will be an enormously complicated task and will thus take a considerable amount of time to adopt. The aim of this proposal is to iron out the disparities that currently exist between the various Member States and any ambiguities that may arise as regards the provisions of the Manual while it is being recast.
This will be a step towards tightening control of the external borders and enhancing mutual trust between Member States in the area of border control. As these are common borders, lax security in one State will inevitably have a knock-on effect in all of the other Member States."@en1
