Amendment 69 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 1
Recital 1
(1) The carrying-out of checks of persons at the external borders significantly contributes to guaranteeing the long-term security of the Union, Member States and its citizens and, as such, remains an important safeguard, especially in the area without internal border control (‘the Schengen area’). Efficient and effective external border controls,Border checks should be carried out in accordance withing to, in particular, Regulation (EU) 2016/399 of the European Parliament and of the Council32 where applicable, help combating illegal immigration and prevent threats to the Member States’ internal security, public policy, public health and international relatin such a way as to fully respect human dignity and in full compliance with relevant Union law, including the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Unions . _________________ 32 Regulation (EU) 2016/399 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2016 on a Union Code on the rules governing the movement of persons across borders (Schengen Borders Code) (OJ L 77, 23.3.2016, p. 1).
Amendment 70 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 2
Recital 2
(2) The use of travellpassenger data and flight information transferred ahead of the arrival of travellpassengers, known as advance passenger information (‘API’) data, contributes to speeding up the process of carrying out the required checks during the border-crossing process. For the purposes of this Regulation that process concerns, more specifically, the crossing of borders between a third country or a Member State not participating in this Regulation, on the one hand, and a Member State participating in this Regulation, on the other hand. Such use strengthens checks at those external borders by providing sufficient time to enable detailed and comprehensive checks to be carried out on all travellpassengers, without having a disproportionate negative effect on persons travelling in good faith. Therefore, in the interest of the effectiveness and efficiency of checks at external borders, an appropriate legal framework should be provided for to ensure that Member States’ competent border authorities at such external border crossing points have access to API data prior to the arrival of travellpassengers.
Amendment 73 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 4
Recital 4
(4) The existing legal framework should therefore be updated and replaced to ensure that the rules regarding the collection and transfer of API data for the purpose of enhancing and facilitating the effectiveness and efficiency of border checks at external borders and for combating illegal immigration are clear, harmonised and effective.
Amendment 78 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 7 a (new)
Recital 7 a (new)
(7a) For transit passengers whose initial point of departure and final destination are outside of the territory of the Member States participating in this Regulation, and who therefore will not cross the external borders, air carriers should not be under the obligation to transfer API data.
Amendment 82 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 8
Recital 8
(8) In the interest of effectiveness and legal certainty, the items of information that jointly constitute the API data to be collected and subsequently transferred under this Regulation should be listed clearly and exhaustively, covering both information relating to each travellpassenger and information on the flight of that travellpassenger. Such flight information should cover information on the border crossing point of entry into the territory of the Member State concerned in all cases covered by this Regulation, but that information should be collected only where applicable under Regulation (EU) [API law enforcement], that is, not when the API data relate to intra-EU flights.
Amendment 85 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 10
Recital 10
(10) Automated means enable travellpassengers to provide certain API data themselves during an online check-in process. Such means could, for example, include a secure app on a travellpassengers’ smartphone, computer or webcam with the capability to read the machine-readable data of the travel document. Where the travellpassengers did not check-in online, air carriers should in practice provide them with the possibility to provide the machine- readable API data concerned during check- in at the airport with the assistance of a self-service kiosk or of airline staff at the counter.
Amendment 93 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 13
Recital 13
(13) In view of ensuring that the pre- checks carried out in advance by competent border authorities are effective and efficient, the API data transferred to those authorities should contain data of travellpassengers that are effectively set to cross the external borders, that is, of travellpassengers that are effectively on board of the aircraft. Therefore, the air carriers should transfer API data directly after flight closure. Moreover, API data helps the competent border authorities to distinguish legitimate travellpassengers from travellpassengers who may be of interest and therefore may require additional verifications, which would necessitate further coordination and preparation of follow-up measures to be taken upon arrival. That could occur, for example, in cases of unexpected number of travellpassengers of interest whose physical checks at the borders could adversely affect the border checks and waiting times at the borders of other legitimate travellpassengers. To provide the competent border authorities with an opportunity to prepare adequate and proportionate measures at the border, such as temporarily reinforcing or reaffecting staff, particularly for flights where the time between the flight closure and the arrival at the external borders is insufficient to allow the competent border authorities to prepare the most appropriate response, API data should also be transmitted prior to boarding, at the moment of check-in of each travellpassenger.
Amendment 96 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 15
Recital 15
(15) In order to avoid any risk of misuse and in line with the principle of purpose limitation, the competent border authorities should be expressly precluded from processing the API data that they receive under this Regulation for any other purpose than enhancing and facilitating the effectiveness and efficiency of border checks at external borders and combating illegal immigrthose expressly provided for in this Regulation.
Amendment 99 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 16
Recital 16
(16) To ensure that competent border authorities have sufficient time to carry out pre-checks effectively on all travellers, including travellers on long-haul flights and those travelling on connecting flightpassengers, as well as sufficient time to ensure that the API data collected and transferred by the air carriers is complete, accurate and up-to- date, and where necessary to request additional clarifications, corrections or completions from the air carriers, the competent border authorities should store the API data that they received under this Regulation for a fixed time period that remains limited to what is strictly necessary for those purposes. Similarly, to be able to respond to such requests, air carriers should store the API data that they transferred under this Regulation for the same fixed and strictly necessary time period.
Amendment 106 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 19
Recital 19
(19) The router should serve only to facilitate the transmission of API data from the air carriers to the competent border authorities in accordance with this Regulation and to PIUs in accordance with Regulation (EU) [API law enforcement], and should not be a repository of API data. Therefore, and in order to minimise any risk of unauthorised access or other misuse and in accordance with the principle of data minimisation, any storage of the API data on the router should remain limited to what is strictly necessary for technical purposes related to the transmission and the API data should be deleted from the router, immediately, permanently and in an automated manner, from the moment that the transmission has been completed or, where relevant under Regulation (EU) [API law enforcement], the API data is not to be transmitted at all.
Amendment 109 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 20
Recital 20
(20) With a view to ensuring the proper functioning of the transmission of API data from router, the Commission should be empowered to lay down detailed technical and procedural rules on that transmission. Those rules should be such as to ensure that the transmission is secure, effective and swift and impacts passengers’ travel and rights and air carriers no more than necessary.
Amendment 115 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 26
Recital 26
(26) In particular, the purposes of the processing operations under this Regulation, namely the transmission of API data from air carriers via the router to the competent border authorities of the Member States, are to assist those authorities in the performance of their border management obligations and tasks related to combating illegal immigration. Therefore, the competent border authorities receiving the API data should be controllers for the transmission of API data constituting personal data via router and the storage of that data on the router insofar as such storage is needed for technical purposes, and for any of their processing subsequently using that data to enhance and facilitate border checks at external borders. The air carriers, in turn, should be separate controllers regarding the processing of API data constituting personal data that they are obliged to undertake under this Regulation. On this basis, both the air carriers and the competent border authorities should be separate data controllers with regard to their own respective processing of API data under this Regulation.
Amendment 116 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 27 a (new)
Recital 27 a (new)
(27a) Taking into account the right of passengers to be informed of the processing of their personal data, Member States should ensure that passengers are provided with accurate information that is easily accessible and easy to understand about the collection of API data, their transfer to the competent authorities or the PIU and their rights as data subjects.

Amendment 123 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 35 a (new)
Recital 35 a (new)
(35a) This Regulation should preclude any extension of its provisions at national level to cover intra-EU flights or to other modes of transport carrying passengers within the European Union departing from, going to or transiting through a Member State, in particular the obligation to provide API data, since any of these measures would be considered as equivalent to the exercise of border checks, hence contrary to the EU law.
Amendment 124 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 36
Recital 36
(36) Since the objectives of this Regulation, namely enhancing and facilitating the effectiveness and efficiency of border checks at external borders and combating illegal immigration, relate to matters that are inherently of a cross- border nature, they cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States individually, but can rather be better achieved at Union level. The Union may therefore adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on the European Union. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective.
