(26) In order to promote better integration of EU long-term residents, rules on favourable conditions for family reunification and access to work for spouses should be introduced. Thus specific derogations from Council Directive 2003/86/EC should be provided for. Family reunification should not be subject to conditions relating to integration, as EU long-term residents and their families are deemed to be integrated in the host society. The integration in the Member States of third-country nationals who are long-term EU residents is an essential element that must be accompanied by policies to boost the birth rate in the Union, which are fundamental and a priority owing to the ageing and shrinking active population.
