A/HRC/29/36 available information to the RCC, place themselves at its disposal and follow its instructions to assist with the rescue operation and disembark the rescued persons in a place of safety.

This Directive, passed in February 2014, was the first directive on legal migration to focus on low-skilled economic migration. Member States have until 30 September 2016 to transpose the provisions of the Directive into their national laws, regulations and administrative provisions. Its declared aim is to set out “fair and transparent rules of entry and stay of seasonal workers who are not EU citizens”. It is destined for seasonal workers who retain their principal place of residence in a country outside of the EU and stay temporarily in the EU to carry out a “seasonal” activity such as agriculture and tourism. Its seeks to establish “a common set of rights to which seasonal workers are entitled during their stay in the EU in order to avoid their economic and social exploitation”. It therefore stipulates that workers are entitled to equal treatment with nationals of the host member state with regard to terms of employment. This includes working conditions, leave and holidays, health and safety requirements at the workplace and social security. 10. In contrast to these positive provisions in relation to the human rights of migrants, the Seasonal Workers Directive also aims to provide for incentives and safeguards to prevent temporary stays from becoming permanent. However those who are already in the EU would be allowed to extend their contract or change their employer at least once. Reentry of those who return every year is to be facilitated in order to promote circular migration. While the Directive provides a framework, again it leaves the Member States to determine how many workers they admit and allows them the latitude to reject applications if EU workers are available.12 New mobility partnerships and readmissions agreements under the GAMM 11. The GAMM framework has four priorities: better organising legal migration and fostering well managed mobility; preventing and combating irregular migration and eradicating trafficking in human beings; maximising the development impact of migration and mobility; and promoting international protection and enhancing the external dimension of asylum. 12. The GAMM is constituted by a complex and vast array of loosely associated policy and legal mechanisms, as well as a number of different migration related projects within origin, transit and destination countries, including those related to South-South migratory flows. The GAMM includes 8 regional dialogues, which are designed to foster coordinated action between the EU and other continents at the regional level. Also under the GAMM, sit plurilateral and bilateral agreements between EU and EUMS and specific third countries. In the period 2012-2013, the Commission supported more than 90 migration-related projects with a collective budget of over € 200 million. 13 13. Mobility Partnerships are a key tool and have been prominent in the EU’s recent external dialogue about its migration and border management. They encompass a broad range of issues ranging from development aid to temporary entry visa facilitation, circular migration programmes and the fight against unauthorised migration, including cooperation 11 12 13 European Commission, 2015, “Reply by DG Migration and Home Affairs to the questions by the Special Rapporteur on the human rights of migrants”.
