EU Lawmakers Approve 'Return Hubs' Migration Reform
Lawmakers backed a 418-218 overhaul that expands detention powers and lets member states send rejected migrants to return hubs outside the bloc.
- On Wednesday, the European Parliament approved a new migration law to speed up returns of rejected asylum seekers, passing the measure by 418 votes to 218, with 30 abstentions.
- The centre-right European People's Party secured the legislation's passage by aligning with right-wing groups, aiming to address the bloc's long-standing difficulties in enforcing return decisions.
- New rules allow member states to establish 'return hubs' in non-EU countries, while migrants may be held for up to 24 months with a possible six-month extension.
- Socialist and Democrats vice-president Ana Catarina Mendes argued the regulation risks normalizing 'legally questionable practices' previously considered unacceptable within the EU.
- Authorities will gain broader investigative powers and stricter entry bans rising to ten years or lifetime for security risks, reshaping enforcement mechanisms across member states.
