A/HRC/29/36 the European Union can accommodate over 1 million of the world’s refugees (0.2 per cent of the total population of the European Union) over a number of years. 101. Develop and incentivize other regular and safe migration channels, including for workers with varying skills levels, including for low-wage workers. Look at a variety of options for legal migration, such as humanitarian admission, humanitarian visas, temporary protection, family reunification, economic admissions at all skills levels, as well as for job seeking, student mobility and medical evacuation, in line with the suggestions of the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights. 102. European Union member States should increase the number of migrants admitted under existing regular migration schemes, including the Blue Card system, the seasonal workers directive and the future student and researcher directive. Search and rescue 103. Prepare for more arrivals by sea and commit to fully implementing obligations under international law to provide search and rescue services to migrants in distress at sea, with State provision being the cornerstone of search and rescue operations. 104. Carefully consider options for how incentives that negatively impact private vessels’ willingness to assist migrants in distress can be removed, including the development of a means by which compensation is given for commercial losses. 105. Develop protocols for how military vessels deployed in the Mediterranean Sea for purposes other than search and rescue should respond to incidents of migrants in distress to complement State action. 106. Further develop solidarity and responsibility-sharing mechanisms between border and non-border States in relation to search and rescue operations and processing protection claims through the provision of technical, financial and human resources. External management of migration 107. Improve the coherence of the Global Approach to Migration and Mobility, integrate rigorous human rights, due diligence, monitoring and oversight mechanisms into all external agreements and prioritize projects in countries of origin and transit that will improve the human rights of migrants. For example, as suggested by the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights, prioritize support that improves search and rescue operations within efforts to build the border management capacity of non-European Union States, as well as support for national human rights institutions. 108. Make promoting genuine mobility for non-European Union migrants the cornerstone of the Global Approach to Migration and Mobility. Dublin and detention 109. Take stock of the systemic failure of the Dublin mechanism. Reverse the present logic by allowing asylum seekers to register their asylum claims in the country of their choice within the European Union, while supporting the countries receiving asylum claims with proportionate and adequate financial and technical support. 110. Invest in the considerable expansion and harmonization of the European Asylum Support Office through several mechanisms, including through mutual recognition of refugee status determination decisions, exchange of refugee judges 19
