Eurodac (Hansard, 26 October 1999)

§ Mr. Lidington
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what progress he has made with the implementation of the Eurodac Implementing Rules (8140/99); and if he will make a statement. [94131]

§ Mrs. Roche
The draft Eurodac implementing rules were drawn up in respect of the draft Eurodac Convention and associated draft Protocol, which were not adopted by the Council prior to the entry into force of the Treaty of Amsterdam. A draft Eurodac Regulation is currently under discussion as a First Pillar measure. My right hon. 815W Friend the Home Secretary announced on 7 October that the United Kingdom was opting in to the draft Regulation. Implementing rules for the draft Regulation may need to be supplemented in the future in the light of technical developments.

§ Mr. Lidington
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what discussions he has had about the possible transfer to the Commission of competence for implementing the provisions of the Eurodac Regulation; and if he will make a statement. [94130]

§ Mrs. Roche
The Commission has proposed that competence for implementing provisions of the Eurodac Regulation should be transferred to the Commission by the Council in accordance with the terms of the first sentence of Article 202 of the Treaty Establishing the European Community. The Council will need to decide whether there are grounds in this instance for reserving that competence to itself in accordance with the third sentence of Article 202.
