ANNEX II.1

COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION of 30 November 1994 concerning the adoption of a standard travel document for the expulsion of third-country nationals

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Article K.1 (3) (c) thereof,

Whereas combating unauthorized immigration, residence and work by nationals of third countries on the territory of Member States is regarded as a matter of common interest;

Noting that consultation and cooperation on the execution of expulsion measures is considered a priority action in the 1994 work programme;

Acknowledging that a recent seminar on expulsion measures showed that the great majority of Member States experience difficulties in cases of third-country nationals possessing no travel documents who are required to be expelled from their territory;

Desirous of improving the efficiency with which expulsion measures are executed,

HEREBY RECOMMENDS THAT:

- with effect from 1 January 1995 the attached standard travel document valid for a single journey shall be used as appropriate by all Member States in the case of third-country nationals being expelled from the territory of the Union,

- the document shall be established in the language of the Member State executing the expulsion order,

- the document, where appropriate, shall be translated into both French and English.
