10 December, 13:09
(ANSA) - BRUSSELS - The European Commission on Thursday said
that it has opened infringement procedures against Italy, Greece
and Croatia over their handling of asylum seekers. The move
regards the alleged failure to correctly implement the Eurodac
Regulation, which demands the fingerprinting of asylum seekers
and transmission of data to the Eurodac central system within 72
hours. "The European Commission sent administrative letters to
Greece, Croatia and Italy in October," an EU statement said.
"Two months later, concerns have not been effectively addressed". (ANSA).
