Newsletter Evropského integračního portálu - č. 75

Níže naleznete aktuální newsletter Evropského integračního portálu. Z aktuálního obsahu bychom vás rádi upozornili například na iniciativu Evropské komise pojmenované Science4Refugees, jejímž smyslem je najít vědcům z řad uprchlíků vhodné uplatnění v evropských výzkumných institucích. 

Německá vláda předložila koncem října návrh zákona, který ukládá bankám za povinnost poskytnout každému žadateli bankovní účet; smyslem je umožnit přístup k bankovnímu účtu i lidem bez patřičné dokumentace či trvalého bydliště, jako jsou uprchlíci či lidé bez domova. Dle německého ministra spravedlnosti Heiko Maase nemají lidé bez bankovního účtu dobré vyhlídky na uplatnění na pracovním trhu a bývá pro ně obtížné najít si bydlení.

EC launches infringement proceedings against 19 EU countries on reception and rights of beneficiaries of international protection

The Commission is sending Letters of Formal Notice to 19 Member States for not having communicated the national measures taken to fully transpose the updated Reception Conditions Directive (2013/33/EU)[4] which sets out common minimum standards for the reception of applicants for international protection across Member States. It provides a legal obligation for Member States to ensure that material reception conditions are available to applicants when they apply for international protection. These include access to housing, food, health care and employment, as well as medical and psychological care. It also restricts the detention of vulnerable persons, in particular minors.
