Sweden is currently failing to meet requirements of the newly enacted EU Asylum and Migration Pact. The country lacks a designated body to monitor the enforcement of laws pertaining to asylum seekers' rights. While the Swedish government acknowledges the necessity of such an oversight mechanism, preparations are ongoing within the Ministry of Justice. Currently, there is no estimated timeline for when this body will be established and operational. This delay raises concerns about Sweden’s compliance with EU regulations. The absence of independent scrutiny could potentially impact the treatment and legal protections afforded to those seeking asylum within Sweden’s borders. The government asserts work is in progress to address this gap.
