    "description": "<p>This report analyses and interrogates&nbsp;the accountability and transparency regime of the European Union&rsquo;s border agency Frontex.&nbsp;Frontex was established as a European Union agency in the field of border, migration and&nbsp;asylum policies in 2004 and began operating in 2005. Over the last 15 years, the mandate of&nbsp;the agency, originally tasked with coordinating the operational management of the European&nbsp;Union&rsquo;s external border through support to the EU&rsquo;s member states, has expanded&nbsp;significantly. Through a series of reforms, most notably in 2007, and 2016 and 2019, the&nbsp;agency has become a pivotal actor in what is referred to as &lsquo;European Integrated Border&nbsp;Management&rsquo;. &nbsp;Since the creation of the agency and its first operations, there has been significant concern,&nbsp;both from the European Parliament as well as NGOs and other civil society organisations that&nbsp;the executive mandate of the agency has not been&nbsp;counterbalanced by effective mechanisms&nbsp;for accountability, particularly with respect to fundamental rights.&nbsp;To an extent, the Frontex monitoring and accountability regime has improved since 2011&nbsp;through legislative change, thus strengthening the above mechanisms. The findings of the&nbsp;report however show that despite the continued expansion and strengthening of monitoring&nbsp;and accountability mechanisms since 2016, these efforts have again not resulted in an&nbsp;effective system for monitoring, investigating, addressing, and preventing fundamental rights&nbsp;violations at Europe&rsquo;s external borders.</p>"
