The European Union’s border and coast guard agency needs to make its operational plans more transparent and carry out more rigorous migrant screening procedures, especially for minors, according to a report published by the EU ombudsman’s office today.

The report comes as Frontex has been under increased scrutiny for failing to meet transparency requirements, as well as over allegations of violating the human rights of certain people seeking asylum while forcefully returning other migrants to non-EU countries. The ombudsman’s report was aimed at assessing whether Frontex was complying with the agency’s fundamental rights and transparency requirements under EU rules.

The report added that the agency should publish “its rules on how the Executive Director takes decisions to suspend, terminate or withdraw the financing for Frontex activities for which there are fundamental rights concerns.”
