Amendment 110 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 11
Paragraph 11
11. Acknowledges that safeguards are needed to prevent misuse of the complaints mechanism; recommends, therefore, that anonymous complaints should not be accepted; emphasises, however, that this does not exclude complaints submitted by third parties acting in the interest of a complainant who prefers to remain anonymous; suggests further that only complaints of concrete fundamental rights violations should be admitted; considers that this should not prevent Frontex from taking account of other information sources on alleged fundamental rights violations, including general reports, beyond the complaints procedure; emphasises the need for clear criteria for the admissibility of complaints; recommends the provisiondevelopment - in cooperation with the Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA) and the European Asylum Support Office (EASO) - of a standardised form for complaints requiring detailed information such as date and place of the incident, since this would facilitate decisions on admissibility;

Amendment 168 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 25
Paragraph 25
25. Takes the view that an individual complaints mechanism can only be effective if potential complainants, as well as the officers taking part in Frontex operations, are made aware of the individuals’ right to complain through an effective information campaign; believes it should be possible for the number of potential inadmissible complaints to be limited substantially through such an information campaign and a well- structured admissibility check; Notes that returnees must be briefed about their fundamental rights prior to return operations, in a way that is understandable and comprehensible to every returnee.
