A variety of different areas of application for the FLORA support system were identified within the asylum procedure. These areas represent those parts of the asylum procedure in which considerable effort is involved in communication between the authorities and are characterised by various media discontinuities.
Registration, File Creation, and Hearing
This is where the support system supports the closely-meshed stage of the procedure immediately after the arrival and registration of a displaced person in the (initial) reception facility through to their interview (or Easy distribution). This part of the asylum procedure is characterised by a considerable amount of coordination, as well as by a relatively large amount of identical case constellations in the authorities involved.
Accommodation and Allocation in Counties and Municipalities
The support system is intended in the future to also support coordination when it comes to distributing displaced persons within a state (“Land”), as well as in the implementation of the statutory obligation to reside in a specific reception facility. This means that, if the decision is positive, integration activities can be commenced at an early date, and delays can be avoided with regard to delivering positive notices. What is more, it become easier to identify the cases in which the law permits a longer stay in reception facilities.
Return Counseling
The FLORA support system is intended in the future to also reduce the effort involved in communication between the involved state authorities (“Landesbehörden”) and the BAMF when it comes to the voluntary return of displaced persons to their countries of origin, and also to make process-relevant information more transparent.
Dublin
The FLORA support system is intended in the future to also make it possible to accelerate asylum procedures where several European countries are involved, and to make them more efficient. In order to achieve this, the FLORA support system is to support staff at the BAMF and in the Dublin units of other EU Member States in their exchanges of information and in carrying out their tasks. The FLORA support system is intended to make it easier with regard to transfer requests filed by other Member States in particular to prioritise them in terms of their urgency.
