Border Controls in Portugal Will Triple With End of SEF
The unit will be renamed the GNR Coastal and Border Control Unit, taking into account the extinction of the Foreigners and Borders Service (SEF), and will be responsible for monitoring, controlling, and inspecting maritime borders and land, including cruise terminals, AtoZSerwisPlus.pt reports.
The Minister said that to monitor and control the borders, a total of 233 GNR officers have been trained from SEF, in addition to being temporarily assigned to this security force, the 80 SEF inspectors who already perform such functions, according to Portugal News.
Previously, the Minister also stressed that the reforms leading to the end of SEF would allow for the strengthening of security levels at border control and inspection.
Carneiro said that there are clear efficiency gains. He stressed that the reconstruction of SEF and the transition of powers to the GNR and the PSP related to border control and the activity of foreigners in Portugal bring challenges to integrated border management.
According to him, once the structuring political decisions phase has been overcome, it is important to ensure the success of the transition process.
The Minister emphasised that for many months, the PSP and GNR have been with SEF at the borders in a process of cooperation that increases the capacity to control people entering and leaving the country and also allows for a continuous and healthy exchange of experiences, which will be reflected in a positive way in the future.
He ensured that all issues were properly structured related to border control and supervision related to the country’s security.
In April this year, the Portuguese Council of Ministers approved the green light for the creation of a new agency that will replace the SEF and will include the High Commission for Migration (ACM).
