Selv om Parlamentets godkendelse onsdag sker på baggrund af en aftale indgået med Rådet, skal ministrene officielt godkende forslaget på et rådsmøde, før reglerne kan træde i kraft.
First of all, ministers have to approve the agreement officially at a Council meeting in July
MEP´erne stemmer i Strasbourg Tirsdag formiddag havde MEP'erne en livlig debat om fælles regler for hjemsendelse af illegale indvandrere, og det kompromis, som ordføreren Manfred WEBER (PPE-DE, DE) har indgået med Rådet.
MEPs voting in Strasbourg 17 June, Strasbourg; MEPs debated the text on the Return directive as negotiated between the EP rapporteur Manfred WEBER (EPP-ED, DE) and the Council in Strasbourg.
Parlamentet skal stemme om de nye regler onsdag klokken 11.30, og hvis MEP'erne vedtager ændringsforslag, som ikke er i tråd med aftalen med Rådet, kan aftalen komme i fare.
Most speakers supported the need for a directive, but while the EPP-ED, ALDE and UEN groups support the compromise text, the PES want some changes to boost immigrants' rights, and the Greens/EFA, GUE/NGL and IND/DEM will vote against the directive.
Det nye direktiv sætter minimumsstandarder for, hvordan de ulovlige immigranter skal behandles, og sætter blandt andet en grænse for, hvor længe de ulovlige immigranter maksimalt må tilbageholdes.
Council The debate was opened by Slovenian Interior Minister Dragutin MATE , speaking for the Council Presidency-in-Office, who highlighted the fact that the return directive was the first EP-Council legislative act on migration.
Der er fælles beslutningsprocedure på dette område, så selvom Rådet den 5. juni blev enige om en aftale, kan de nye regler ikke vedtages, før Parlamentet har været inde over.
One of the problematic areas in the negotiations in Council had been the maximum period of detention, but the six month period laid down in the directive would now apply in all Member States.
Parlamentets ordfører Manfred Weber har været med til at forhandle med Rådet, men da der er splittelse blandt Parlamentets grupper om de nye regler, kan afstemningen blive meget tæt.
However, the biggest difficulty had been legal aid, particularly as the Member States had differing experiences, depending on whether they were near to or far from migratory flows.
PSE-gruppen, den Grønne gruppe og GUE-NGL-gruppen har været meget kritiske over for kompromiset.
The minister also stressed that the directive protected vulnerable groups such as children.
Danmark deltager som følge af forbeholdet på det retslige område ikke i udformningen af reglerne.
On all these points he argued that the compromise embodied in the directive "represents progress" and he urged the EP to approve the text.
Aftalen i Rådet kan trues af Parlamentets ændringsforslag Dragutin MATE, den slovenske indenrigsminister, som repræsenterede det slovenske formandskab lagde vægt på, at direktivet om hjemsendelse var den første fælles retsakt på immigrationsområdet.
Commission Commissioner Jacques BARROT , who is expected to take over the justice, freedom and security portfolio at the Commission this week, said the Commission advocated "an integrated approach to immigration".
Han sagde, at et af problemerne i forhold til forhandlingerne havde været at nå til enighed om at fastsætte øvre grænser for, hvor længe de illegale indvandrere maksimalt må tilbageholdes.
If nothing was done, there was a danger of a "vicious circle" in migration policy.
Medlemslandenes var blevet enige om, at det maksimalt skulle kunne ske i 6 måneder (i særlige tilfælde kan dette forlænges til 18 måneder) som skal gælde i alle lande.
He emphasised that "the directive is in line with the European Convention on Human Rights", it "gives priority to voluntary returns" and "it protects the rights of children and families".
Han understregerede, at det også i forhold til at garantere gratis retshjælp til indvandrerne også havde været svært at nå en aftale.
The Commission would monitor implementation of the legislation to ensure that the standards of the European Convention and the UN Declaration on Human Rights were observed.
Derfor understregede han, at det var vigtigt, at Parlamentet bakkede op om den aftale der var nået.
Parliament's rapporteur, Manfred WEBER (EPP-ED, DE), stressed that this was "a complex topic" but that in the Civil Liberties Committee a large majority had come out in favour of the compromise.
"Hvis der bliver vedtaget ændringsforslag, vil det true aftalen i Rådet - proceduren vil trække i langdrag og der vil gå yderligere i hvert fald tre år, før man får en ny tekst - og dermed blive vilkårene ikke forbedret for immigranterne," sagde han.
He stressed that the directive dealt not with asylum but with immigration and he challenged some of the legislation's critics, since he saw it as a way to ensure that "slavery in the EU comes to an end".
For Kommissionen var det Jacques BARROT, (som onsdag forventes officielt at blive godkendt som kommissær med ansvar for retlige og indre anliggender), der talte.
The directive includes protection for "children and unaccompanied minors, access to health and education systems and the use of detention only when necessary".
Han sagde, at det var vigtigt med en 'integreret tilgang til immigration', da der ellers var fare for at komme ind i en ond cirkel i forhold til immigrationspolitikken.
So "why the mud-slinging?", for example from NGOs.
Han understregede, at direktivet er i overensstemmelse med den europæiske konvention om menneskerettigheder, og at det fokuserer på frivillig hjemsendelse og beskyttelse af børn og familiers rettigheder.
Moreover, all the Council of Europe's guidelines were included in the directive, so why was that body being critical?
Parlamentets ordfører Manfred Weber sagde i sin tale, at det var et kompliceret emne, men at der i Udvalget for Borgernes Rettigheder havde været flertal for kompromiset, som han havde indgået med Rådet, og at han derfor håbede på, at Parlamentet ville bakke op om aftalen.
In conclusion, Mr Weber said that what he wanted to see was "a strong, humanitarian Europe".
"Vi taler ikke om asyl, men om de mennesker som i dag befinder sig illegalt i Europa, og vi vil gerne have dem ud af den slavetilstand, de lever i, "sagde han og understregede, at der var store fremskridt i direktivet.
Political group speakers On behalf of the EPP-ED group, Agustín de Mera GARCIA CONSUEGRA (ES) described the directive as "a firm and decisive step" towards regulating legal immigration.
"Alle der stemmer imod kompromiset vil være med til at sørge for, at vi ikke får fremskridt i EU, så disse mennesker får bedre retstilstand," sagde han.
A key objective was to encourage voluntary returns.
Nødvendigt skridt mod fælles immigrationspolitik Agustín DÍAZ DE MERA GARCÍA CONSUEGRA (PPE-DE, ES) sagde, at direktivet var et 'fast og nødvendigt skridt mod fælles immigrationspolitik'.
"Forced return will only be used as a last resort" and there would be "protection of fundamental rights, access to language services and a right of appeal".
"De indvandrere, som er i en ulovlig situation skal kunne vende tilbage til deres land på en god måde.
At present there were places in the EU where immigrants could be held in custody indefinitely but the directive would change that.
Der skal oprettes særlige enheder, da man ønsker at tvinge så lidt om muligt - og det er vigtigt, at man ikke kan tilbageholdes på ubestemt tid," sagde han og understregede, at der er en klar forskel på tilbagesendelse og asylmulighederne.
He also stressed the clear distinction between immigration and asylum legislation and the fact that the Court of Justice would have jurisdiction.
Et Europa, der lukker sig om sig selv Martine ROURE (PSE, FR), sagde, at hendes gruppe ikke vil acceptere kompromiset - ikke fordi gruppen er imod et direktiv, men fordi de ikke finder kompromiset godt nok i forhold til menneskerettigheder.
Martine ROURE (PES, FR) said that her Group would not accept the compromise put forward, not because Socialists are against a returns policy, but because the compromise does not provide adequate protection of fundamental rights.
Ikke godt nok Jean LAMBERT (Verts/ALE, UK) beklagede, at hendes gruppe ikke kunne støtte kompromiset.
Jean LAMBERT (Greens/EFA, GB) said that her group could not accept the negotiated text.
Vi skal se på vores egen kultur Andrzej Tomasz ZAPAŁOWSKI (UEN, PL) mente, at før man kan tale om retslig beskyttelse af familier uden for EU bør man se på, hvad der kan gøres for at redde vores egen kultur.
Andrzej Tomasz ZAPAŁOWSKI (UEN, PL), argued that, before we speak about legal protection for families from outside the EU, we should be hearing something about saving our own culture on families, which has been a model for the rest of the world..
"Om et par år, vil vi her i salen høre opråb om, at vores kultur skal reddes, " sagde han.
Giusto CATANIA (GUE/NGL, IT) said that "the directive is a disgrace, an insult which aims at ruling out thousands of years of welcoming people, of openness in Europe It seeks to limit free circulation.
"Det risikerer at slå en streg gennem vores tradition gennem årtusinder om at være modtager af folk udefra.
We are being dictated to by the Council "Accept it or go away" It is not co-decision.
Jeg er bange for, at det end ikke er et lille skridt i den rigtige retning."
That it is difficult to deal with is evidenced by the many different reactions to the directive.
Kompromiset i stikord
I want a genuine directive to stem the tide but this directive does not move even one step in the right direction.
Hvis indvandreren ikke har de fornødne midler selv, skal der stilles gratis retslig hjælp til rådighed
No Member State will be allowed to adopt rules on detention that worsen the current situation.
Hjemsendelsesdirektivet til debat
Ultimately, he pointed out, "all of us are accountable to our electorates".
Hjemsendelsesdirektivet giver anledning til splittelse blandt MEP´erne Med 369 stemmer for, 197 stemmer imod og 106 hverken for eller imod vedtog Europa-Parlamentet onsdag hjemsendelsesdirektivet, der fastlægger fælles regler for behandlingen af illegale indvandrere i medlemslandene, og hvor længe de må tilbageholdes.
For the Commission, Jacques Barrot said the return directive would not exist in isolation but was part of a planned package on immigration and asylum.
Det er det første forsøg på at fastsætte fælles EU-27 standarder, når det drejer sig om tilbagesendelse af illegale indvandrere.
One benefit of the directive was that it created a Community-based legal framework, allowing scrutiny by the Court of Justice and the European Parliament.
Det er et følsomt politisk område, der i flere måneder har været genstand for mediemæssig bevågenhed.
The EP had achieved progress, notably in the provisions protecting child immigrants.
Direktivet om fælles regler for hjemsendelse af illegale immigranter, eller blot hjemsendelsesdirektivet, har til formål at sætte fælles standarder og procedurer for, hvordan mennesker fra lande udenfor EU, som opholder sig ulovligt i EU, skal sendes tilbage.
He pointed out that the EU had a fund of around €700 million to help with the costs of legal aid and health care.
Direktivet er det første af tre direktiver, der skal tegne EU's fælles indvandringspolitik.
Lastly, he would ensure that in the implementation of the directive human rights were fully respected.
Indholdet af direktivet Det nye direktiv lægger i Kommissionens oprindelige udformning op til at bekæmpe illegal indvandring.
Winding up the debate, EP rapporteur Manfred Weber rejected the accusation that the EU was "guilty of mass graves in the Mediterranean".
Når det er blevet besluttet at udvise en illegale indvandrer, har den pågældende person en periode til frivilligt at forlade EU.
He saw the directive as the best available compromise, predicting that even the NGOs and MEPs who were critical of it "will use the provisions of this directive to go to the Court of Justice to gain benefits for immigrants".
Der vil være en maksimumperiode for, hvor længe man kan tilbageholdes - noget som i mange lande i dag ikke eksisterer.
An emotional return for many illegal immigrants The first attempt to set common standards and procedures for the return of illegal immigrants currently in the European Union will be debated Tuesday.
De tilbageholdte skal desuden garanteres basale levestandarder, herunder have ret til sundhedspleje og skolegang for børnene.
The issue is an emotive one and agreement on this draft directive would be a step towards a unified approach towards immigration.
De ulovlige indvandrere kan også få indrejseforbud til hele EU.
At present there is cooperation but no single policy between EU members.
Splittelse mellem de politiske grupper Manfred Weber (EPP-ED, Tyskland) er Parlamentets ordfører på betænkningen om hjemsendelsesdirektivet.
Here we look ahead at the debate on Tuesday and vote on Wednesday and ask after 3 years of negotiation, is an agreement finally in reach?
I EPP-ED - gruppen er der opbakning til betænkningen, men blandt Parlamentets grupper er der splittelse om de nye regler.
At the start of June European Union Ministers reached an agreement that is broadly backed by several of parliament's political groups.
Afstemningen ventes at blive meget tæt.
This slightly amends a report drafted by German Christian Democrat MEP Manfred Weber and approved by the Civil Liberties Committee in September last year.
PSE-gruppen, den Grønne gruppe og GUE-NGL-gruppen har været meget kritiske over for kompromiset.
6 months of detention envisaged One of the main issues is the amount of time that a person can be held in detention before being sent back to their country of origin, a transit country or another country.
Der er fælles beslutningsprocedure på dette område, så de nye regler kan ikke vedtages, før Parlamentet har været inde over.
At present it varies from 32 days in France to 20 months in Latvia and unlimited duration in 7 countries.
Et af stridspunkterne er, hvor længe personer kan tilbageholdes før de sendes tilbage til deres hjemlande eller transitlande.
In the text approved by EU Ministers a maximum 6 months maximum period is envisaged, extendable by a further 12 months.
I øjeblikket varierer perioden meget på tværs af EU´s medlemslande.
Another issue is that a deportee may be banned from re-entering EU territory for a maximum period of 5 years.
Et andet omdiskuteret spørgsmål er, hvorvidt afviste udlændinge skal have indrejseforbud i EU i en periode på fem år .
Included in the text is a voluntary departure period before a removal order was eventually issued.
MEP´er ser nærmere på Immigrationsdirektiv
If approved what happens next?
Til juni forventes Parlamentet at skulle stemme om et direktiv, der vil medføre fælles regler for hjemsendelse af afviste asylansøgere og illegale immigranter.
However, should it be enacted there is one county - the United Kingdom - that will not be affected as the country has not opted in to this part of community law.
En betænkning om direktivet blev vedtaget sidste år af Parlamentets udvalg om Borgernes Rettigheder og Retlige og Indre Anliggender.

Forhandlingerne om ordlyden af teksten er nu gået ind i en afgørende fase.
You can also read about a visit by a delegation of MEPs form the Civil Liberties Committee to detention centres in Denmark this April - one in a series of visits to see the real conditions for illegal immigrants living in centres around Europe.
I onsdags fik journalister mulighed for at stille spørgsmål til MEP´erne om situationen på et seminar arrangeret af Parlamentet.

Illegal immigration: journalists quiz MEPs on emerging deal
Interessen var først og fremmest samlet om et kommende direktiv, der omhandler fælles regler for hjemsendelse af afviste asylansøgere og illegale immigranter.
In June MEPs must vote on a directive which will set out common rules and procedures for the return of illegal migrants.
Ensartede procedurer for hjemsendelser I kompromisudspillet indgår et forslag om tilbageholdelsen af de indsatte maksimalt må være 6 måneder, dog med mulighed for en forlængelse på op til 12 måneder.
It could also say that immigrants could be held for up to 6 months with a possible extension of a further 12 months - countries that have shorter detention periods will be able to keep them.
Afviste asylansøgere og illegale immigranter der ikke forlader EU frivilligt vil få forbud mod at vende tilbage til Unionen i en periode på 5 år.
Access to health services would also be guaranteed for those in need.
Næste skridt Forhandlinger om dette følsomme politiske emne vil fortsætte de kommende måneder.
Italy's Mario Borghezio for the UEN also supported the proposed compromise between the parliament and the Council.

However, for British Liberal Bill Newton Dunn the existence of the Lesznowola centre raised questions about the EU's whole approach: "it underlines we have uncontrolled immigration all over Europe, it is a big European problem and we clearly need a policy to control the amount of immigration".
