The asylum and migration management regulation, AMMR, addresses the imbalance between responsibility and solidarity on migration across the European Union. This is reflected in the new migration and asylum pact.
Our concerns with the migration and asylum pact primarily centre around the human rights concerns that we highlighted in the Dáil through our party leader, Deputy Ivana Bacik, and which were laid out in detail by organisations such as the Irish Refugee Council, the Movement of Asylum Seekers in Ireland, MASI, the UNHCR and the Migrants Rights Centre. There has been much discussion of what this pact does and does not mean for Ireland, but first we must look at the much broader context in terms of modern migration and asylum and the deep roots of the current inequality and injustices that are leading to asylum seeking and migration.
