Parliament adopted its first-reading position on a regulation amending Regulations (EU) 2019/816 and (EU) 2019/818 to introduce screening of third-country nationals at the external borders.¶¶¶ The amended regulation sets up a screening procedure for third-country nationals at the external borders, using the European Criminal Records Information System for third-country nationals (ECRIS-TCN) and the interoperability framework. Parliament calls on the Commission to refer the matter to Parliament again if it replaces, substantially amends or intends to substantially amend its proposal.¶
