"I voted for the report on amending the regulation on Frontex, the European Agency for the Management of the External Borders of the EU, created in 2004. Its aim is to more clearly define the agency’s mandate and to improve its effectiveness. How? Firstly, by addressing a recurring problem: the fact that Frontex is too dependent on Member States for the deployment of personnel and equipment. From now on, the agency will have the means to purchase or lease its own equipment, and Member States will be required to honour their commitments with regard to providing national border guards. This is about establishing a proper EU border guard system that can be tapped by the agency for all its operations. Secondly, by reducing the time needed to deploy rapid intervention teams to the borders, in order to be truly able to face emergency situations. Finally, and this is crucial, by strengthening the provisions relating to Frontex respecting and defending fundamental rights in all areas for which it is responsible. This is one of Parliament’s main victories in this text, which, we hope, will soon have direct and tangible results on the ground, in the difficult areas located at the external borders of the Union."@en1
