Paragraph 30 a (new)
Paragraph 30 a (new)
30a. Stresses further that the premise for Dublin is outdated and based on a very different geo-political environment than the one faced today; Calls for an overhaul of the archaic Dublin System into a system which deals with the registration of asylum seekers separately from asylum claims, under the provisions granted by the Common European Asylum System; Highlights that the "irregular entry" criterion should no longer be taken into account to determine which Member State shall be responsible for the examination of an asylum claim, but that the responsibility for the examination of an asylum claim should be made through a centralised system in a way that ensures no Member State's reception capacities are disproportionately affected; calls for the allocation of technical and financial resources and support to Member States of first arrival in order to ensure the swift and effective registration of asylum seekers in full respect of fundamental human rights of refugees;

Paragraph 112
112. Calls for a comprehensive vision of the labour market trends in the Union as a necessary pre-condition for the development of labour market policies; points out that it is necessary to develop tools for identifying and forecasting present and future labour market needs in the Union in a better way, especially in the context of the digital single market; suggests, in that regard, that existing tools – such as those developed by the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (CEDEFOP) or the OECD – could be improved upon, and even merged, with international statistics on potential labour supply from third countries in order to provide a more accurate picture of the situation;
