(2) The mid-term review identified the need to provide adequate financial support in relation to reception and accommodation and detention facilities, and respective services, for applicants for international protection or for third-country nationals who are present in a Member State and do not or no longer fulfil the conditions for entry or stay in a Member State, as well as for housing support for beneficiaries of international protection. (3) Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 516/2014 lists eight specific actions for Member States to receive additional funding, out of which six are joint actions involving several Member States. (4) The policy developments and the funding needs detected in the context of the mid-term review cannot be adequately tackled through the current list of specific actions. Therefore, amending that list is the best way to meet the needs identified within the objectives of the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund. (5) The new specific action being added to Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 516/2014 will contribute to the efficient management of the migration flows. It is in line with the specific objective of that Regulation, as referred to in its Article 3(2)(d), which is to enhance solidarity between the Member States. (6) The addition of a new specific action that reflects the recent policy developments and funding needs of the Member States will generate significant added value as it will contribute to the mitigation of the pressure on those most affected by migration and asylum flows and, thus, on the Union as a whole. (7) In order to allow for the prompt application of this specific action, in view of the urgent funding needs identified, the Regulation should enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union. (8) Regulation (EU) No 516/2014 should therefore be amended accordingly, (1) OJ L 150, 20.5.2014, p. 168. (2) Regulation (EU) No 514/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 laying down general provisions on the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund and on the instrument for financial support for police cooperation, preventing and combating crime, and crisis management (OJ L 150, 20.5.2014, p. 112).

(2) The mid-term review identified the need to provide adequate financial support to border control activities, in particular in the hotspots areas as defined in Article 2(10) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1624 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3), as well as in other border areas facing similar existing or potential high and disproportionate migratory pressure. (3) Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 515/2014 lists two specific actions for Member States to receive additional funding. (4) The funding of actions aiming at reinforcing border control capacities and implementing the hotspot approach, or similar, cannot be adequately channelled through the current list of specific actions. Therefore, amending that list is the best way to meet the needs identified within the objectives of Internal Security Fund – Borders and Visa. (5) The new specific action being added to Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 515/2014 will contribute to an effective level of control of the external borders of the Union. It is in line with the specific objective of that Regulation, as referred to in its Article 3(2)(b), which is to support integrated border management, facilitating access to international protection for those needing it. (6) The addition of a new specific action that reflects the recent policy developments and funding needs of the Member States will generate significant added value as it will contribute to the mitigation of the pressure on those most affected by migration and asylum flows and, thus, on the Union as a whole. (7) In order to allow for the prompt application of this specific action, in view of the urgent funding needs identified, the Regulation should enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
