Amendment 169 #
Charlie WEIMERS
Motion for a resolution
Annex I – Recommendation 1
1 (on the establishment of a Union- wide talent pool for legally migrating third-country nationals) - The European Parliament considers that the legislative act to be adopted should establish a Union-wide talent pool for third-country nationals who wish to apply for work in and migrate legally to a Member State, as well as for Union-based employers to search in third countries for potential employees, and should facilitate the admission and free movement of third-country workers. The European Parliament considers that such a Union- wide talent pool should establish synergies with the existing framework and the legislative act should therefore amend Regulation (EU) 2016/589 in order to expand the current scope of the EURES Portal, established by that Regulation; - The talent pool, as established by the legislative act, would allow third-country nationals to express their interest in and apply for work, while also enabling employers to search for potential employees. Third-country nationals would be able to apply for work where there is a shortage in the Member States’ domestic labour markets, after having gone through an application and pre-screening process. The talent pool would serve as an optional tool that Member States could use to meet the demands of and shortages in the Member States’ labour markets that cannot be met by the domestic workforce. The talent pool should be complemented by increased coordination between participating national authorities, and it should take into account national specificities and the different demands of national labour markets. In that spirit, the Union-wide transnational advisory service network, as referred to in Recommendation 5, should facilitate the running of the talent pool and serve as a contact point for the talent pool in the Member State.deleted

Amendment 181 #
Charlie WEIMERS
Motion for a resolution
Annex I – Recommendation 2
2 (on an admittance scheme for low and medium-skilled third-country workers) - It is a pressing need for the Union to improve its attractiveness for all skilled third-country workers, not only for highly-skilled workers. With the revision of the Directive (EU) [EU BLUE CARD], the Union has taken further steps to achieve that goal for highly-skilled third- country workers. However, it is imperative to achieve that goal for low- and medium- skilled third-country workers in order to fill vacancies and improve matching on the Member States’ labour markets, further enhancing the Union’s economic competitiveness. - To properly address that issue, the European Parliament calls on the Commission to, within the legislative act to be adopted, include provisions setting up an admission scheme with conditions of entry and residence for low- and medium-skilled third-country workers. The scheme should include the creation of a framework within which third- country workers are able to have their skills and qualifications properly recognised and validated for use on the Member States’ labour markets.deleted
