1 Agreement number: HOME/2015/ISFB/AG/EMAS/0007 Ref. Ares(2016) /06/2016 Amendment nr 1 ANNEX I - DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTION Project ref.: HOME/2015/ISFB/AG/EMAS/0007 Title: Emergency support enhancing the operational capacity of FRS to manage the extreme rise in migration flows into Greek national and European territory 1. Description of the emergency situation requiring financial assistance The past year has seen unprecedented numbers of new arrivals, in particular to the Northeastern Aegean and Dodecanese islands. Their close proximity to Turkey means that sea crossings are comparatively less dangerous than the Central Mediterranean route, however, loss of lives still occur. Enhanced Search and Rescue operations by the Hellenic Coast Guard are ongoing on the route. New record arrival figures were observed on some islands, with the numbers of arrivals in some cases surpassing the total local population of the island. Greece is facing an 850% increase in arrivals from January - August 2015 compared to the same period in The trend of an accelerating increase is continuing. 40% of all sea arrivals in 2015 occurred in August, over 80,600. This is 30,000 more than in July and almost double the figure of the total arrivals in 2014 (43,500). The increasing backlog in registration and the lack of availability of ferry tickets leads to major congestion of most islands receiving refugees and migrants, particularly on Lesvos, Kos, Chios, Samos and Leros. Average daily arrivals almost doubled from 1,600 in July to 2,900 in August. Lesvos has received the highest number of arrivals, almost half of the total in Greece, 96,000 in 2015 (as of 28 August) with 1,500 average arrivals per day. Over the last days of August, at least 12,000 refugees and migrants have been present on the island. On Kos, the average arrivals per day was 500 during August. Average daily arrivals on other islands in total was 1,000. Demonstrations sometimes amounting to clashes between the police and migrants occur on a regular basis, particularly on Kos and Lesvos (Source: UNHCR Operational Update - August 2015). This rise of migratory and refugee flows exceeds the limits of the national reception infrastructure and operational capacity, and the available resources are inadequate to provide due reception and processing to the incoming refugees and illegal migrants who cross the Aegean. The mission of the First Reception Service -established by Law 3907/2011- is to facilitate and coordinate the efficient management of third-country nationals who enter the country irregularly, in a context of respect of human dignity by subjecting them to first reception processes. Therefore, third-country nationals who have entered the country without legal formalities, are subjected to first reception procedures. The successful management of these people, is ensured through the construction and operation of First Reception Centers and First Reception Mobile Units. The FRS is currently operating two Mobile Units A (currently deployed in Samos) and B (currently deployed in Lesvos), and one First Reception Center in Evros (Fylakio). The proposed action will enhance the operational capacity and extend the reach of the FRS, by reinforcing the existing structures and creating new ones in islands on the Aegean border which are under extreme pressure. 1

2 Agreement number: HOME/2015/ISFB/AG/EMAS/0007 Amendment nr 1 2. Description of the action The overall goal of this action is to strengthen the capacity of Greek authorities and nongovernmental organizations dealing with the refugee crisis, to manage the inflow of refugees and illegal migrants in an efficient way, ensuring the safety of the target groups, proper registration procedures and abiding by international law. The Target groups of the action are the following: a. The First Reception Service, a Greek public authority charged with the responsibility to manage the refugee and migration flow b. NGOs working with refugees and migrants on the ground: the Médecins du Monde (MdM), Medical Intervention (Med.In), Praksis, MetAction c. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) The final beneficiaries of the action are the incoming immigrants and refugees, including Unaccompanied Minors (UAMs) and victims of war and torture seeking international protection, and indirectly the residents of the Greek border islands, the residents of Greek cities and communities on the migration path and other EU citizens. The proposed action will enhance the operational capacity of relevant actors in Greece to confront the extreme rise in the inflow of Third Country Nationals (TCNs) who cross the Aegean sea. In the First Reception Centers and the Mobile Units certain procedures are followed regarding third country nationals, which include: a) the verification of their identity and nationality, b) their registration on a national database, c) their medical control and the provision of any necessary health care and psychosocial support, d) information about their rights and obligations, in particular the conditions under which they can be placed under international protection and e) special care for those belonging to vulnerable groups (i.e. unaccompanied minors, disabled or people suffering from an incurable disease, elderly people, women in pregnancy or childbirth, single parents with minor children, victims of torture, rape or other serious forms of psychological, physical or sexual violence or exploitation, trafficking victims). After the completion of the above mentioned procedures, the TCNs are referred to the responsible authorities according to their situation, that is to the hospital if further treatment is required, to the Asylum Service if the TCN expresses the interest to apply for asylum, to the National Center of Social Solidarity if they are unaccompanied minors or belong to the above mentioned vulnerable groups, or to the Police for all other administrational procedures. Due to the rapid increase in migration flows in the First Reception Centers and Mobile Units, which exceeds the existing capacity, the number of TCNs to be registered on the national database (through the Police on Line intranet) is increasing rapidly. So there is the need: a. for more staff to have the ability to connect to the Hellenic Police APN (Access Point Name: a gateway between a GPRS, 3G or 4G mobile network and the Police intranet) so as to complete more registrations from different places; 2

3 Agreement number: HOME/2015/ISFB/AG/EMAS/0007 Amendment nr 1 b. for the provision of medical screening of all TCNs and psychosocial support of vulnerable persons; c. for non food and personal hygiene packs for the TCNs; d. for the provision of Information to TCNs; e. interpretation for all the above procedures. In order to purchase the above necessary equipment and supplies, the FRS and the cobeneficiaries (partners) will follow the required procurement procedures. The First Reception Service, with the support of this action, will: 1. Reinforce the operations of the Service in all Regional Units and Centers 2. Set up an operational Mobile Unit E (Chios) 3. Ensure the operation of the Mobile Unit A (Samos) 4. Ensure the operation of the Mobile Unit B (Lesvos) 5. Ensure the operation of the First Reception Center in Lesvos 6.
