Debates on EU approach to migration and the expulsion of migrants from Spain

Migration will be high on the agenda on Tuesday afternoon. MEPs will first debate the need for a holistic EU approach to migration with the new European Commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos i and the Italian Secretary of State for European Affairs Sandro Gonzi. Next they will discuss planned changes to Spain’s national law which would allow it to expel clandestine migrants caught entering its North African enclaves Ceuta and Melilla without providing procedural safeguards for them.

You can watch the plenary debate via EP Live and EbS+.
