Statewatch has published an analysis of the completion of the second phase of the Common European Asylum System by Professor Steven Peers. The analysis concludes that the second-phase legislation brings about "very limited improvements as regards reception conditions, modest improvements as regards procedures and qualification, no real improvement as regards the Dublin rules and a significant reduction in standards as regards Eurodac". It also underlines that not only harmonised legislation is needed to achieve real common standards, but also a more coherent and vigorous enforcement.
