Amendment 10 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 18
(18) The European Border and Coast Guard Agency should have the necessary equipment and staff at its disposal to be deployed in joint operations or rapid border interventions. To this end, when launching rapid border interventions at the request of a Member State or in the context of a situation requiring urgent action, the European Border and Coast Guard Agency should be able to deploy European Border and Coast Guard Teams from a rapid reserve pool which should be a standing corps composed of a small percentage of the total number of border guards in the Member States, which should amount to a minimum of 1 500. Those teams should also include in their staff translators or fluent speakers of both the host Member State's language and the language mostly spoken by those they need to address. The deployment of the European Border and Coast Guard Teams from the rapid reserve pool should be immediately complemented by additional European Border and Coast Guard Teams as appropriate.

Recital 27 a (new)
(27a) Strengthening the cooperation through, among others, data and information sharing between the Member States' authorities, the EU Agencies, and the European Border and Coast Guard Agency would increase the workload of the staff in all the EU Agencies. This should be properly addressed by the Commission and the European Parliament through budgetary increase for the agencies and through an increase of staff members trained for the new tasks.
