The EU ETD Directive and the Development of EU Administrative Procedural Law. Theoretical Remarks

RemarksEuropean administration is increasingly featured by composite procedures whereas authorities and organs of direct and indirect administration are forming networks to finally decide upon a single case.The consular protection policy of the EU and its recent developments is worth to be explored and analysed in this point of view especially with procedural administrative law aspects to see how the citizenship rights are evaluated in material and procedural administrative law.The new ruling of the EU type of emergency travel document [EU ETD] is on the path of cooperation and coordination but in a more matured and sophisticated way than the 2015 directive on the coordination and cooperation measures to facilitate consular protection for unrepresented citizens of the Union in third countries.It not only refers to a network of the potential actors taking part in the composite procedure of consular protection, but it prescribes, inter alia, deadlines for each procedural step and empowers the delegations and the Commission to have an active role in execution to build European consular protection a European administrative structure and ensure the evaluation of citizenship rights along with fundamental right in a more comprehensible manner.
