EU labour migration: Three directives

Ahead of the EPSCO Council meeting (Employment, Social Policy, Health and Consumer Affairs) 6 December 2010, the Belgian presidency has prepared an information note on legal immigration (labour migration).

The note presents the state of play with regard to three proposed directives:

1. Proposal for a Directive on a single application procedure for a single permit for third-country nationals to reside and work in the territory of a Member State and on a common set of rights for third-country workers legally residing in a Member State (single permit)

2. Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on Conditions of entry and residence of third-country nationals for the purposes of seasonal employment (seasonal workers, see doc. 12208/10)

3.Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on Conditions of entry and residence of third-country nationals in the framework of an intra-corporate transfer (ICT, see doc. 12211/10)


Information notes such as this one are useful. Even better if the Oeil procedure numbers could be added to future ones.
