I voted in favour of this report, because it represents another important step by the European Parliament towards protecting the Schengen area of free movement. Indeed, for a variety of reasons the area of free movement has recently been under threat, and this has sparked much public debate over how the Schengen area should be managed and maintained in future. I am convinced that we do not have to reform the current framework, but simply enhance it, because the Schengen rules defined in the Schengen Borders Code already set out the conditions and procedures for the temporary reintroduction of border controls at internal borders. On the other hand, this framework has several shortcomings and could be improved. Firstly, it is unilateral and, consequently, it is impossible to give priority to the EU’s collective interest. Strengthening the Schengen framework in future should change this. Secondly, the mechanism established for evaluating how the Member States are complying with the provisions of the Schengen
where the evaluation is carried out by an intergovernmental working group, is clearly insufficient."@en1
