    European Parliament 2014-2019 0119/2016 21.11.2016 WRITTEN DECLARATION submitted under Rule 136 of the Rules of Procedure on missing refugee children Deirdre Clune (PPE), Brian Hayes (PPE), Roberta Metsola (PPE), Patricija Šulin (PPE), Monica Macovei (ECR), Ivan Jakovčić (ALDE), David Casa (PPE), Esther de Lange (PPE), Claude Rolin (PPE), Mariya Gabriel (PPE) Lapse date: 21.2.2017 DC\1108753EN.docx PE594.661v01-00 EN EN 0119/2016 Written declaration, under Rule 136 of Parliament’s Rules of Procedure, on missing refugee children1 1. According to Europol, there are an estimated 10 000 refugee children missing in Europe, and these children are being targeted by pan-European criminal gangs for sexual abuse and slavery. 2. There is currently a lack of a cohesive EU-wide policy or protocol for dealing with refugee children when they go missing. 3. There is a need to ensure that unaccompanied refugee minors are adequately protected in the EU, including by identifying unaccompanied children upon disembarkation, registering them, carrying out a preliminary risk assessment and ensuring referral to the relevant child protection services. 4. Cases of missing refugee children should also be treated with the utmost urgency and seriousness when they are reported to European authorities. 5. The Council and the Commission are urged to make missing refugee children a top priority of the European Union’s migration and refugee policy, and to put a further emphasis on cooperation between Member States to combat criminal gangs that take advantage of these vulnerable children. 6. This declaration, together with the names of the signatories, is forwarded to the Council and the Commission.

  • Social Affairs Forum News January 2015
    SOCIAL AFFAIRS FORUM NEWS JANUARY 2015 SECRETARIAT UPDATES Our next Social Affairs Forum and study visit at CSV UK will take place on 9 and 10 March 2015 in London. Please register here: http://solidar.org/spip.php?page=agenda&date=2015-03- 09 The agenda will follow in due time. Advisory group on asylum, migration and integration SOLIDAR constituted a transversal advisory group on asylum, migration and integration coordinated by our Italian member ARCI with the support of the Secretariat. The political reason for creating such a taskforce is that - despite the fact that migration is currently a very relevant political, social and cultural matter - a common approach has not emerged. On the contrary, migration more and more became a divisive question between different political and cultural visions on the future. The aim of the advisory group is to work together on a common approach on the issues of asylum, migration and integration by providing a platform to better understand the challenges that civil society organisations are facing at local level as well as to share knowledge about practices that SOLIDAR members are carrying out. A brainstorming meeting will take place on 10 February from 10:00 to 13:00 at SOLIDAR Offices. The aim of the brainstorming is to make a first exchange with members on the priorities, objectives and expectations about the work of this advisory group in 2015. Please also note that the brainstorming meeting will be followed by the SOLIDAR-CGIL round table Rights-based approach to EU migration policies: the role of the Trade Union Network on Mediterranean and Sub-Saharan Migrants that will take place on 10 February from 15:00 to 17:30.
