"The proposal from the Commission for the recast of the original Directive 2004/83/EC forms part of the move towards a Common European Asylum Policy by 2012. For the original Directive the European Parliament had only consultative powers. Now, following the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, the Parliament is in a position of codecision. The existing Directive has two key elements: the grounds on which someone qualifies for refugee status or subsidiary protection and the content of that protection in terms of residence, employment and social rights within the Member State responsible for protection. A fundamental change proposed here is to approximate these two categories of protection more closely. The main objective is, on the one hand, to ensure that Member States apply common criteria for the identification of persons genuinely in need of international protection, and, on the other hand, to ensure that a minimum level of benefits is available for these persons in all Member States. In order to enhance the effective exercise of the rights and benefits that have been laid down, it is necessary to take into account at all costs their specific needs and the particular integration challenges with which they are confronted. Efforts should also be made, I believe, to address the problem that relates to the financial constraints that in their own way prevent these persons from gaining access to employment-related educational opportunities and vocational training."@en1
