1. Following the Council's adoption of Regulation (EU) No 1053/2013 establishing an

evaluation and monitoring mechanism to verify the application of the Schengen acquis, a

team of experts from the Member States and the Commission carried out an evaluation of

Hungary on the application of the Schengen acquis in the field of return in 2019.

2. In accordance with that Regulation, the Commission submitted to the Council a proposal for a

Council Implementing Decision setting out a Recommendation designed to address the

deficiencies identified in the course of the evaluation and ensure that Hungary applies all

Schengen rules related to return correctly and effectively.
