European Pact on Immigration and Asylum
European Union heads of government have adopted the Immigration and Asylum Pact at the the end of a two-day meeting of the European Council in Brussels.
European leaders agreed on the Pact last Thursday, October 16th.
"The European Pact on Immigration and Asylum - a document of political intent but not binding laws - sets out principles for managing migration, fighting illegal immigration and forming partnerships with countries people leave or travel through to get to Europe."
