Paragraph 4

4. Urges the Commission to ensure that any such internal strategy is accompanied by an action plan, in order to supplement and strengthen the Strategic Framework on Human Rights and Democracy already applied in EU external relations; notes that the strategy should: (a) make provision for an annual policy cycle that monitors its application, taking account of the results of annual and specific reports from the various parties involved, institutional and otherwise, and contribute towards improving coordination between those involved and the drafting of policies on the basis of greater transparency and dialogue; (b) develop a pro-active plan of action consistent with the principle of subsidiarity that: – lays down the measures to be taken in order to enforce all the rights and principles laid down by the Charter, for example by identifying areas in which reforms are necessary, introducing new standards, improving monitoring and ensuring more effective application of existing standards; – stipulates that all European policies and actions, including in the economic sphere, and all EU-funded measures must undergo a detailed ex ante and ex post assessment of their impact on fundamental rights; (c) develop, in cooperation with the FRA, a database that collates and publishes data on the situation regarding fundamental rights in the EU and in individual Member States; reiterates, in that connection, the need for the Commission to propose a revision of the FRA Regulation in order to grant the FRA wider powers; (d) broaden the scope of the EU Justice Scoreboard to cover the assessment of criminal justice systems and of efforts to uphold fundamental rights and the rule of law;deleted
