“Awareness of home affairs”
INTRODUCTION
DG HOME, the European Commission Directorate-General for Home Affairs, was
established on 1 July 2010 with a remit to build an open and safer Europe. DG HOME
manages policies that aim at ensuring that all activities necessary and beneficial to the
economic, cultural and social growth of the EU may develop in a stable, lawful and secure
environment.
DG HOME is responsible for two main areas of activity within the European Commission:
building a common EU migration and asylum policy and ensuring EU security.
In relation to EU migration and asylum policy, DG HOME works to develop a balanced
and comprehensive EU migration policy, based on solidarity and responsibility, which - in
line with the Europe 2020 strategy – will make an important contribution to the Union’s
economic development and performance in the longer term. DG HOME aims to create an
EU-wide set of rules for legal migration, while taking into account the interconnection
between migration and integration; and to address irregular migration and trafficking in
human beings, while ensuring effective protection for the people who need it through the
establishment of a Common European Asylum System.
As regards the internal security of the Union, DG HOME aims to help build a safer Europe
by fighting terrorism and organised crime, including cybercrime, through strengthening
cooperation between EU Member States on law enforcement, border management, and
building up a risk management policy to increase Europe's resilience towards crises and
disasters.
In each of these policy areas, DG HOME aims to promote dialogue and cooperation with
non-EU countries, with a view to working in partnership with these countries to tackle
common challenges.
This survey, commissioned by DG HOME, has been undertaken with the overall
objectives of understanding European citizens’ awareness and attitudes in relation to
home affairs, including attitudes towards cross-border mobility, migration and security.
More specifically it covers:

Perceptions of the importance of being able to travel within the EU without border
controls; and if it should be made easier for non-EU citizens to travel to the EU

Attitudes towards non-EU labour migration within Europe

labour or sexual exploitation
This Eurobarometer survey was commissioned by the Directorate-General for Home
Affairs and was co-ordinated by the Directorate-General for Communication. The survey
was carried out by TNS Opinion & Social network, with fieldwork conducted between 3rd
and 18th December 2011. The methodology used is that of Eurobarometer surveys as
carried out by the Directorate-General for Communication (“Research and Speechwriting”
Unit). A technical note on the manner in which interviews were conducted by the
Institutes within the TNS Opinion & Social network is appended to this report. It indicates
the interview methods and the confidence intervals.
The findings of this survey have been analysed firstly at EU level and secondly by
country. Where appropriate, a variety of socio-demographic variables – such as
respondents’ gender, age, terminal education age, occupation and ability to pay
household bills – have been used to provide further analysis. Other key variables that
have been used to provide additional insight include measures based on respondents’
attitudes towards cross-border mobility and migration:

the importance of being able to travel within the EU without internal border
controls

whether the EU should encourage labour migration from non-EU countries

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The key findings from this survey are:

The majority (67%) of Europeans think it is important for them to be able to
travel within the EU without internal border controls.

Respondents in NMS12 (77%) are more likely than those in EU15 (65%) to
consider it important for them to be able to travel within the EU without internal
border controls. There are considerable national variations, with respondents in
Cyprus (87%) the most likely, and those in Denmark (43%) and Sweden (47%)
the least likely, to think it important.

Just under six in ten Europeans (57%) think it should be easier for non-EU
citizens to travel to the EU for tourism or business.

Respondents in NMS12 (69%) are more likely than those in EU15 (53%) to agree
that it should be easier for non-EU citizens to travel to the EU. This belief is most
prevalent in Poland (78%) and Lithuania (78%) and least so in the Netherlands
(46%), Austria (45%) and Luxembourg (42%).

Just over four in ten Europeans (42%) think the EU should encourage labour
migration from non-EU countries to help tackle demographic challenges and
labour shortages within the EU, with a slightly higher proportion (46%)
disagreeing.

Respondents in Sweden (60%) and Finland (56%) are most likely to think the EU
should encourage migration from non-EU countries and those in Latvia (18%) and
Cyprus (16%) least likely to do so.

Only a third of Europeans (34%) believe that discussion about immigration in the
EU is based on facts and reliable data. A slightly higher proportion (40%) take the
opposing view and one in four (26%) are not sure either way.

Respondents in NMS12 (40%) are somewhat more likely than those in EU15
(32%) to think that discussion about immigration in the EU is based on reliable
information. Countries where the belief that discussion is based on reliable data is
most widespread are Poland (47%), Lithuania (46%), Estonia and Finland (both
45%) and Luxembourg and Belgium (both 44%). Those where the most
widespread view is that discussion is not based on reliable information are
Sweden (59%), the UK and the Netherlands (both 56%), Greece (54%), and
Denmark (51%).
7 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380

“Awareness of home affairs”
Around three-quarters of Europeans (73%) agree that non-EU immigrants may
have difficulties integrating largely because they do not wish to do so. However,
many Europeans (60%) also acknowledge that discrimination may contribute to
these difficulties.

Two-thirds of Europeans (68%) believe legal immigrants should have the same
rights as national citizens, but opinion on whether immigration enriches the
country culturally and economically is more divided, with just over half (53%)
thinking that it does and just over two fifths (42%) that it does not.

Respondents in NMS12 are less likely than those in EU15 to think immigrants
should have the same rights as national citizens (61% vs. 71%) and that
immigration enriches their country (45% vs. 55%). However, they are also less
likely to think immigrants may face difficulties integrating because they do not
wish to (68% vs. 74%).

Respondents in Sweden have particularly positive attitudes towards non-EU
immigrants. Respondents in Latvia are the least likely to agree either that non-EU
immigrants should have the same rights as national citizens or that immigration
enriches the country.

There is widespread agreement among Europeans that EU Member States should
offer protection and asylum to those in need (80%) and that the rules for
admitting asylum seekers should be the same across the EU (85%).

Respondents in Sweden are particularly likely to agree both that EU Member
States should offer protection and asylum to those in need (95%) and that the
rules for admitting asylum seekers should be the same across the EU (92%), as
are those in the Netherlands (91% and 90% respectively).

Respondents in Hungary (65%) and Latvia (69%) are the least likely to agree that
EU Member States should offer protection and asylum, and those in Latvia (67%)
the least likely to think that asylum rules should be the same across the EU.

Most Europeans also agree that the costs associated with the provision of asylum
should be shared between all Member States (81%) and that the number of
asylum seekers should be shared more equally across Member States (80%).

Respondents in NMS12 are less likely than those in EU15 to think either that the
costs of asylum provision should be shared amongst all EU Members (68% vs.
84%) or the number of asylum seekers should be shared more equally across
Member States (68% vs. 84%).
8 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380

“Awareness of home affairs”
Respondents in Romania and Latvia are the least likely to favour the sharing of
the costs of asylum provision (57% and 61% respectively) or the number of
asylum seekers (57% and 55% respectively). Those in Cyprus are particularly
likely to be in favour both of the costs being shared (91%) and the numbers being
shared more evenly (93%).

Most Europeans think that the EU should increase its assistance to Member States
in handling irregular migration (80%) and that the cost of irregular migration
should be shared by all EU Members (78%).

Respondents in NMS12 are less likely than those in EU15 to think that the cost of
handling irregular migration should be shared amongst all EU Members (69% vs.
81%).

Countries with the most widespread view that more EU assistance should be
provided to tackle irregular migration are Cyprus (96%), Malta (95%) and Greece
(95%). Those with the least widespread belief are Portugal (71%), Austria (72%)
and Sweden (73%).

Cyprus (94%), Malta (89%), Greece (87%) and Spain (87%) are also the most
likely to hold the view that the cost associated with handling irregular migration
should be shared by all EU Members. Finland (60%) is least likely to think this
should be the case.

Europeans are much more divided in opinion on whether individual Member States
should handle irregular migration on their own, with half (50%) disagreeing and a
slightly smaller proportion (44%) agreeing.

Respondents in NMS12 (50%) are somewhat more likely than those in EU15
(43%) to think each Member State should handle irregular migration on its own

Respondents in Romania (63%) are the most likely, and those in Malta (15%) the
least likely, to think Member States are best equipped to handle irregular
migration independently.

Almost all Europeans think their immediate neighbourhood and local area (city,
town, village) are secure places to live in (90% and 89% respectively). Most also
believe their country and the EU are secure (84% and 81% respectively).

Respondents in NMS12 are slightly less likely than those in EU15 to think that
their country (80% vs. 85%), local area (86% vs. 90%) and immediate
neighbourhood (86% vs. 91%) are secure places to live in.
9 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380

“Awareness of home affairs”
Respondents in Finland, Denmark, Austria and the Netherlands hold particularly
positive perceptions of security at all four geographical levels, while those in
Hungary consistently hold the least positive perceptions.

Just under half (48%) of Europeans think fundamental rights and freedoms have
been restricted in the EU because of the fight against terrorism and organised
crime, while a slightly smaller proportion (44%) disagree.

Respondents in Cyprus (62%), Sweden (62%) and Greece (60%) are most likely
to think rights and freedoms have been restricted. There are four countries where
an absolute majority disagree that rights and freedoms have been restricted:
Finland (63%), Germany (56%), Latvia (51%) and the Czech Republic (51%).

The vast majority of Europeans (91%) agree that EU institutions and Member
State governments should work more closely together in order to fight terrorism
and organised crime and three-quarters (75%) believe that the EU should
increase financial support to Member States to counter these threats.

Opinion is more divided on whether the EU should provide financial and practical
support to non-EU countries to tackle terrorism and organised crime (54% agree),
and on whether Member States are able to counter terrorism and organised crime
on their own (46% agree).

Respondents in NMS12 are more likely than those in EU15 to agree that the EU
should provide more funding to Member States (86% vs. 72%) and financial and
practical support to non-EU countries (58% vs. 53%) to fight terrorism and
organised crime, but also that Member States are able to counter these threats on
their own (50% vs. 45%).

Respondents in Cyprus are the most likely to agree that EU institutions and
Member State governments should work more closely in fighting terrorism and
organised crime (98% agree, with 87% saying they “totally agree”) and that the
EU should provide more financial support to Member States (96% agree, with
85% saying they “totally agree”). They are least likely to think Member States
capable of countering these threats on their own (16%).

Almost all Europeans (93%) think it is important for the EU to address labour and
sexual exploitation, with the majority (62%) believing it very important.

In terms of socio-demographics, a consistent pattern emerges throughout the
results for younger people (especially 15-24 year olds) to have more positive
attitudes, particularly in relation to freedom of movement and immigration, and
older people (especially those aged 75+) to have less positive attitudes towards
these issues.
10 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
Other socio-demographic groups that tend towards more positive opinions, but with
less consistency, are those who live in towns, those in management occupations and
those who ‘almost never’ struggle to pay household bills.

CROSS-BORDER MOBILITY
Freedom of movement is a fundamental right that entitles every EU citizen to travel,
work and live in any EU country. Schengen1 cooperation enhances this freedom by
enabling more than 400 million EU citizens, as well as many non-EU nationals,
businessmen, tourists or other persons legally present on the EU territory to cross
internal borders without being subjected to border checks.
This first section of the report focuses on Europeans’ attitudes to cross-border mobility in
terms of the importance they place on being able to travel within the EU without internal
border controls and whether they think it should be made easier for non-EU citizens to
travel to the EU for business or leisure purposes.
The majority of Europeans believe it is important to be able to travel within the
EU without internal border controls
Two thirds of Europeans (67%) think it is important for them to be able to travel within
the EU without internal border controls2. Around a third of respondents (32%) believe it
is “very important” and just over a third (35%) think it is “fairly important” to be able to
do so. One third of Europeans (32%) do not think it is important for them to be able to
travel within the EU without internal border controls, with a fifth (21%) of respondents
saying that it is “not very” and a tenth (11%) saying it is “not at all” important.

22 Member States are signed into it. The five that are not are Bulgaria, Cyprus, Ireland, Romania and the UK.

“Awareness of home affairs”
There is regional variation in attitudes with a divide in opinion between the fifteen
Member States that were EU Members prior to 2004 (EU15) and the twelve Member
States that joined subsequently (NMS12). NMS12 (77%) is more likely than EU15 (65%)
to think it is important to be able to travel within the EU without border controls, and, in
particular, more likely to think it is “very important” to be able to do so (40% vs. 30%).
Within individual Member States opinion varies widely:
More than eight in ten respondents in Cyprus (87%), Poland (84%) and Slovenia (81%)
think it is important for them to be able to travel within the EU without border controls.
Indeed in Cyprus almost seven out of ten respondents (69%) think it is “very important”
for them to be able to do so; and in Slovenia just over half of respondents (52%) say it is
“very important”.
13 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
At least three quarters of respondents agree that travel within the EU without border
controls is important in a further five Member States: Belgium (77%), Romania (76%),
Spain (76%), Ireland (75%) and Slovakia (75%).
There are only two Member States where the majority of those surveyed do not think it
is important for them to be able to travel within the EU without border controls – Sweden
(53% unimportant vs. 47% important) and Denmark (57% and 43% respectively).
The most notable demographic variations in attitude are linked to gender, age, the ability
to pay household bills (a measure of affluence) and the degree of urbanisation. Those
groups most likely to think it is important to be able to travel within the EU without
border controls are:

men (71%), compared with women (65%)

younger people, in particular 15-24 year olds (78%), compared with older people,
most notably those aged 75+ (51%)

those still studying (82%), compared with the retired (59%)

those who completed their studies aged 20 or more (74%)

those who ‘almost never’ struggle to pay their bills (68%) or struggle ‘from time
to time’ (69%), compared with those who have difficulty paying bills most of the
time (59%)

those who live in towns, in particular large towns (72%), compared with those
who live in rural areas (65%)
Attitudinally, those who think the EU should encourage non-EU labour migration are
much more likely to agree that it is important to be able to travel within the EU without
border controls (78%) than those who do not (60%).

Six out of ten Europeans think it should be easier for non-EU citizens to travel to
the EU for tourism or business
Just under three-fifths of respondents (57%) agree that it should be easier for non-EU
citizens to travel to the EU for tourism or business3. Around one in five (19%) “totally
agree” with this view. Among those who disagree that it should be easier for non-EU
citizens to travel to the EU (38%), most “tend to disagree” (24%).
Respondents in NMS12 countries again show more favourable views towards crossborder mobility than those in EU15 countries. Seven in ten respondents in NMS12
countries (69%) agree that travel to the EU should be easier for non-EU citizens,
compared with just over a half of respondents (53%) in the EU15.

“Awareness of home affairs”
In terms of individual Member States, respondents in Poland (78%), Lithuania (78%),
Greece (73%) and Romania (72%) are the most likely to agree that travel for non-EU
citizens should be made easier. Respondents in Cyprus are particularly likely to say they
“totally agree” that it should be easier for non-EU citizens to travel to the EU for business
or tourism (44%), as are those in Romania (37%) and Lithuania (32%). There are only
three Member States in which an absolute majority disagree that it should be easier for
non-EU citizens to travel to the EU for business or tourism: the Netherlands (46% agree,
52% disagree), Austria (45% and 52%) and Luxembourg (42% and 54%). In the
remaining 20 Member States, opinion is either evenly balanced or in favour of making
travel for non-EU citizens easier.
17 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
The most notable demographic variations in attitude on this measure relate to age and
the degree of urbanisation, with younger people and those living in urban areas again
more favourable towards cross-border mobility. More specifically, those who are
particularly likely to agree that it should be easier for non-EU citizens to be able to travel
to the EU are:

15-24 year olds (64%), compared with those aged 55+ (52%) and in particular
those aged 75+ (45%)

those who are still studying (64%), compared with those who are retired (51%)

those who left education at the age of 20 or more (59%), compared with a
leaving age of 15 or less (51%)

those who live in towns, in particular large towns (61%), compared with those
who live in rural areas (54%)
Attitudinally, those who think it is important to be able to travel within the EU without
internal border controls are considerably more likely to agree that it should be easier for
non-EU citizens to travel to the EU for tourism or business (67%) than those who do not
(36%).
Similarly, those who think the EU should encourage non-EU labour migration are much
more likely to agree that it should be easier for non-EU citizens to travel to the EU for
tourism or business (73%) than those who do not (43%).

MIGRATION
This chapter of the report looks at what role Europeans think the EU should adopt with
respect to labour migration from non-EU countries and whether they perceive EU
discussions on immigration to be based on accurate information. It then examines
Europeans’ views on the integration of non-EU immigrants within European societies, and
on asylum seekers. It concludes by exploring Europeans’ opinions on the role that the EU
and individual Member States should adopt in handling “irregular” migration.
2.1
Attitudes to migration
Respondents were asked to what extent they agreed or disagreed that the EU should
encourage labour migration from non-EU countries in the context of demographic
challenges in the EU (for example, the ageing population) and the need to fill gaps in
some sectors of the EU labour market4.
Opinion is fairly evenly divided between those Europeans who think the EU
should encourage labour migration from non-EU countries and those who do
not, with the balance of opinion marginally in favour of the latter view
Around two fifths (42%) of Europeans agree that the EU should encourage labour
migration from non-EU countries to help tackle demographic challenges and labour
shortages facing the EU and its economy, with most saying that they “tend to agree”
(32%). A slightly larger proportion (46%) disagree that the EU should encourage labour
migration, with the level of disagreement evenly divided between those who “tend to
disagree” (23%) and those who “totally disagree” (23%). A small minority of
respondents (8%) neither agree nor disagree that the EU should encourage labour
migration from non-EU countries, spontaneously saying that “it depends on the
circumstances”.

QB6. “When thinking about the demographic challenges ahead (e.g. ageing population) and the need for

OUT –ONE ANSWER ONLY) Totally agree, Tend to agree, Tend to disagree, Totally disagree, It depends on the

20 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
EU15 (47%) is slightly more likely than NMS12 (41%) to believe the EU should not
encourage labour migration from non-EU countries, and to “totally disagree” that the EU
should encourage such migration (24% vs. 17%).
21 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
The countries in which respondents are most likely to agree that the EU should
encourage labour migration from non-EU countries are Sweden (60%) and Finland
(56%), followed by Spain (51%) and Romania (50%). There are a further six Member
States where the balance of opinion is towards agreeing that the EU should encourage
labour migration from non-EU countries:

Poland (49% agree, 33% disagree)

Italy (49% and 34%)

Portugal (48% and 38%)

Slovakia (48% and 39%)

Austria (44% and 36%)

Ireland (40% and 37%)
22 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
In 16 of the remaining 17 Member States, the balance of opinion is towards respondents
disagreeing that the EU should encourage labour migration from non-EU countries. The
two countries most likely to hold this view are Latvia, where three quarters (75%) of
respondents disagree, with almost half (45%) saying that they “totally disagree”, and
Cyprus, where just under three quarters (72%) disagree, with three-fifths (60%) saying
that they “totally disagree” that the EU should encourage this form of migration. The
balance of opinion towards disagreeing that the EU should encourage labour migration is
also particularly strong in France (33% agree, 61% disagree) the UK (33% and 56%),
the Czech Republic (31% and 56%), Slovenia (31% and 60%), Hungary (30% and 63%)
and Estonia (27% and 64%).
In the one remaining Member State, Bulgaria, opinion is evenly divided between those
who agree and those who disagree that the EU should encourage such migration (35%
each).
Socio-demographic measures associated with age are again the strongest discriminators
in attitudes towards whether the EU should be encouraging non-EU labour migration.
There are also some differences between occupational groups. There are no notable
differences by gender, the ability to pay bills or the degree of urbanisation. Those most
likely to agree that the EU should encourage non-EU migrants into the EU are:

the young: 15-24 and 25-34 year olds (46% each), particularly when compared
with those aged 75+ (33%)

those still studying (46%), when compared with those who are retired (37%)

those who completed their studies aged 20 or more (47%), particularly when
compared with those who left school at 15 (37%)

those holding management occupations (47%), particularly when compared with
manual workers (41%), housepersons (41%), the unemployed (41%) and those
who have retired (37%)
Attitudinally, those who think it is important to be able to travel within the EU without
internal border controls are much more likely to agree that the EU should encourage nonEU migrants (48%) than those who do not (28%).
23 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
The next section examines whether Europeans perceive discussion about immigration
within the EU to be based on reliable information and data.
24 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
Only a third of Europeans believe discussion about immigration in the EU is
based on accurate information
Only a third (34%) of respondents think discussion about immigration in the EU is based
on facts and reliable data5. Two fifths (40%) do not think such dialogue is based on
accurate information and a further quarter (26%) are unable to express a view, saying
that they “don’t know”.
Respondents in NMS12 are more likely than those in EU15 to think discussion is based on
facts and reliable data (40% vs. 32% respectively). The following table shows how

As noted above, a relatively large proportion of Europeans (26%) are unable to express
an opinion on this measure, and this proportion varies considerably by country, ranging
from a small minority of respondents in Finland (7%) and Belgium (8%) to more than a
third in Portugal (38%), Malta (36%), Romania and Ireland (both 35%) and Spain
(34%), and a half (50%) of respondents in Bulgaria.
26 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
There are seven Member States where respondents are most likely to agree (i.e. say
“yes”), rather than disagree (say “no”) or be unable to express a view on whether
discussion about immigration in the EU is based on reliable data and facts. They are
Poland (47%), Lithuania (46%), Estonia (45%), Luxembourg (44%) Romania (38%),
Malta (38%), and Italy (36%). The UK has the lowest proportion of respondents holding
such a view (25%), followed by Sweden (26%), Greece (26%) and the Netherlands
(29%). In the 17 Member States where respondents are most likely to disagree (say
“no”), rather than agree or be unable to give an opinion on whether discussion is based
on reliable information, such a view is strongest in Sweden (59%), the UK (56%), the
Netherlands (56%), Greece (54%) and Denmark (51%).
The most striking socio-demographic variations in the profile of respondents who agree
that discussion is based on fact and reliable data relate to age and the ability to pay bills,
with 15-24 year olds (40%) more likely than older people, in particular those aged 75+
(25%); those still studying (43%), more likely than those who finished their education at
the age of 15 or below (28%); and those who almost never struggle to pay bills (35%),
compared with those who struggle most of the time (27%) more likely to hold this view.
The most significant gender difference is that women (29%) are more likely than men
(22%) not to know if discussion is based on reliable information.
In terms of the attitudinal sub-groups, a similar pattern emerges to that already seen on
other measures discussed, although differences are less marked in this case. Those who
consider it important for them to be able to travel in the EU without border controls are
more likely to believe discussion is based on reliable data (38%) than those who do not
(25%), as are those who believe the EU should encourage non-EU labour migration
(39%) relative to those who do not (31%).

Integration
This section focuses on Europeans’ attitudes towards the integration of non-EU
immigrants into European societies.
Respondents were told that around 4% of people living in the EU are from non-EU
countries before being asked to give their opinions on four measures relating to the
integration of these immigrants in European societies6.
There is a very widespread view among Europeans that non-EU immigrants may
have difficulties integrating because they do not wish to do so, but many
Europeans also acknowledge that discrimination may contribute to these
difficulties. Most Europeans believe legal immigrants should have the same
rights as national citizens but opinion on whether immigration enriches the
country is more divided.
Around three quarters (73%) of Europeans believe immigrants may have difficulties in
integrating largely because they do not want to do so. Whilst most respondents who hold
this view say that they “tend to agree” (44%), a sizeable proportion (29%) “totally
agree” that difficulties may arise for this reason. A smaller proportion, but still the
majority of Europeans (60%), believe immigrants may face integration difficulties largely
because of national discrimination, although a relatively small minority (17%) “totally
agree” that difficulties may arise because of discrimination.
Most Europeans (68%) agree that legal immigrants should have the same rights as their
own national citizens, with around three in ten respondents (29%) saying that they
“totally agree”. Opinions on whether immigration from outside of the EU enriches the
country, both culturally and economically, are more diverse with just over half (53%) of
Europeans thinking that it does and just over two fifths (42%) that it does not. The
proportions holding a particularly positive or negative view are similar, with 16% of
respondents saying that they “totally agree” and 15% of respondents saying that they
“totally disagree” that immigration enriches their country.

“Awareness of home affairs”
There are some differences between EU15 and NMS12 on three of the four measures –
the exception being difficulties faced by immigrants because of national discrimination,
where similar proportions agree. Respondents in EU15 are more likely than those in
NMS12 to agree that immigration enriches their country (55% vs. 45%), that immigrants
should have the same rights as national citizens (71% vs. 61%) and immigrants may
face difficulties with integration largely because they do not wish to integrate (74% vs.
68%).
30 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
In all Member States the majority of respondents agree that non-EU immigrants may
face integration difficulties largely because the immigrants themselves do not wish to
integrate:
This view is strongest in Slovenia (90%), Germany (86%), Austria (84%), Luxembourg
(82%), the Czech Republic (82%), Slovakia (81%), Latvia (81%) and Belgium (81%). It
is weakest in Malta (59%), Romania (56%) and Sweden (52%). Indeed in Sweden just
under half (45%) of all respondents disagree that immigrants choosing not to integrate
may be the cause of any difficulties they face.
31 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
In almost all Member States (23), the majority also agree that non-EU immigrants may
face difficulties integrating because of discrimination they face within the country:
This view is strongest in Sweden (80%), Finland (76%) and Slovenia (73%). It is
weakest in Bulgaria, although here the balance of opinion is still towards respondents
agreeing that any difficulties faced are largely due to discrimination, with 45% of
respondents agreeing, compared with 38% who disagree. Opinion is evenly divided in the
three other countries where a majority of respondents do not agree with the statement –
Austria (47% agree vs. 48% disagree), the Netherlands (48% agree vs. 50% disagree)
and Germany (48% agree vs. 50% disagree).

This belief is strongest in Sweden (93%), followed by the Netherlands (85%), Spain
(84%), Portugal (81%), Denmark (80%) and Finland (79%). It is weakest in Cyprus
(39%), Hungary (35%) and Latvia (30%). These are the only three Member States
where the absolute majority disagree that legal immigrants should have the same rights
as nationals: Cyprus (59%), Hungary (61%) and Latvia (68%). In the one remaining
country, Estonia, opinion is almost evenly divided between those who agree (48%) and
those who disagree (50%).
33 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
There are only 13 Member States where the majority of respondents agree that
immigration enriches their country:
Those countries where this view is most widely held are Sweden (81%), Luxembourg
(72%), the Netherlands (67%), Finland (66%), Portugal (65%), Denmark (64%) and
Germany (63%). Respondents in Sweden and Luxembourg are particularly likely to
“totally agree” that immigration enriches their country (41% and 35% respectively).
Among the twelve Member States where a majority disagree that immigration enriches
their country, this view is most widespread in Latvia (78%), Cyprus (75%), the Czech
Republic (73%), Greece (66%) and Hungary (65%). In Cyprus and Latvia views are
particularly strong, with 53% of respondents in Cyprus and 42% of those in Latvia saying
that they “totally disagree” that immigration enriches their country.
34 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
It is worth noting that in some countries respondents found it difficult to express an
opinion on these four measures and gave an answer of “don’t know”. Those countries
where respondents are particularly unable to give a view are:

Bulgaria, ranging from 10% (legal immigrants should have the same
rights) to 20% (integration difficulties may arise because immigrants do
not wish to integrate)

Romania, ranging from 8% (legal immigrants should have the same
rights) to 18% (difficulties may arise largely because immigrants do not
wish to integrate)

Malta, ranging from 6% (legal immigrants should have the same rights) to
17% (immigrants face difficulties largely because of discrimination)

Poland, ranging from 10% (legal immigrants should have the same rights/
immigrants face difficulties because of discrimination) to 13% (difficulties
may arise largely because immigrants do not wish to integrate) and

Ireland, ranging from 8% (legal immigrants should have the same
rights/immigrants face difficulties largely because of discrimination) to
14% (difficulties may arise largely because immigrants do not wish to
integrate)
Socio-demographic analysis shows that the attitudes of men and women are similar on
all four of these measures. Again, however, there are consistent differences between age
groups and, linked to this, by terminal education age. 15-24 year olds are more likely
than older people, particularly those aged 75+, to agree that immigration enriches their
country (59% of 15-24 year olds vs. 43% of those aged 75+), that legal immigrants
should have equal rights to national citizens (74% vs. 60% respectively) and that
difficulties immigrants may face in integrating are largely because of discrimination (65%
vs. 53%). They are less likely to agree that difficulties faced by immigrants in integrating
are largely because they choose not to integrate (68% vs. 77%). The pattern is similar
among those who have a higher terminal education age or who are still studying,
compared with those who left education aged 15.
On two of the four measures there are differences in attitude relating to the ability to pay
bills and the degree of urbanisation. Those who almost never struggle to pay bills are
more likely than those who struggle most of the time to hold the view that immigration
enriches their country (57% vs. 43% respectively), and that legal immigrants should
have the same rights as national citizens (71% vs. 63% respectively).
35 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
Those who live in towns, particularly those living in large towns, are more likely than
those who live in rural areas to also think immigration enriches their country (57% vs.
49%) and that legal immigrants should have equal rights (72% vs. 66%).
There are also marked differences in attitude between occupational groups on three of
the four measures. Those holding management positions are the occupational group
most likely to agree that immigration enriches their country (67%); those least likely to
agree with this view are the retired (48%), the unemployed (49%) and housepersons
(49%). Similarly, managers are more likely to agree that legal immigrants should have
equal rights to national citizens (74%) than those who are retired (65%), unemployed
(66%) or housepersons (66%). managers (68%) and the unemployed (69%) are less
likely to agree that immigrants may face difficulties because they choose not to
integrate, particularly when compared with those who have retired (77%).
In line with the findings on other measures, those who think it is important to be able to
travel within the EU without border controls are much more likely than those who do not
to agree that immigration enriches their country (59% vs. 41%); legal immigrants should
have equal rights (73% vs. 59%); and immigrants may face difficulties because of
discrimination (63% vs. 51%). Conversely, they are slightly less likely to agree that
immigrants may face difficulties because they do not want to integrate (71% vs. 75%).
Similar differences are apparent between those who think the EU should encourage nonEU labour migration and those who do not, although here the differences are more
marked. Hence, those who think the EU should encourage labour migration are more
likely than those who do not to agree that immigration enriches their country (73% vs.
39%); that legal immigrants should have equal right (81% vs. 60%); and that
immigrants may face difficulties because of discrimination (71% vs. 52%). They are less
likely to agree that immigrants may face difficulties because they do not want to
integrate (69% vs. 78%).

Asylum seekers
Having explored Europeans’ attitudes towards labour migration, immigration discussion
in the EU and the integration of non-EU immigrants in European societies, this section
examines opinions on asylum seekers and the role that Europeans think the EU and
individual Member States should adopt.
Respondents were given a brief overview of why asylum is granted to people and were
then asked to say whether they think EU Member States should offer asylum; whether
rules for admitting asylum seekers should be the same across the EU; and whether the
number of asylum seekers and costs for providing asylum should be shared among all
Member States7.
The vast majority of Europeans think EU Member States should offer asylum and
that EU rules for admittance should be the same across the EU. Most also
believe the number of asylum seekers should be shared more equally across
Member States, and that the costs of providing asylum should also be shared.
Four fifths of those polled (80%) agree that EU Member States should offer protection
and asylum to those in need. Similar proportions think the number of asylum seekers
should be shared more equally among EU Member States (80%) and costs associated
with providing asylum should be shared between all EU Members (81%). A slightly higher
proportion (85%) thinks the rules for admitting asylum seekers should be the same
across the EU. Among the small minority of respondents who do not hold these views,
most “tend to disagree”, with 5% or less saying that they “totally disagree”.

There are some differences between the EU15 and NMS12. The most notable are that
respondents in NMS12 are much less likely than those in EU15 to agree that costs of
providing asylum should be shared among all EU Members (68% vs. 84%) and twice as
likely to disagree that costs should be shared in this way (23% vs. 12%). Similarly,
NMS12 is less likely than EU15 to agree that the number of asylum seekers should be
more equally shared across EU Member States (68% vs. 84%) and, again, twice as likely
as EU15 to disagree that numbers should be more evenly distributed (22% vs. 11%).
Attitudes also vary between the individual Member States:
39 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
Those countries where the belief that Member States should offer asylum to those in
need is most widespread are Sweden (95%), Denmark (92%) and the Netherlands
(91%). In contrast respondents in Latvia (69%) and Hungary (65%) are the least likely
to agree with this view, and the most likely to disagree that asylum should be offered to
those in need (29% and 31% respectively). Relatively high proportions of respondents in
Belgium (27%), Estonia (27%), France (26%) and the UK (25%) also disagree that
asylum should be offered to people in need.
40 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
Respondents in Sweden (92%), Germany (91%), Finland (91%), Belgium (90%) and the
Netherlands (90%) are particularly likely to agree that rules for admitting asylum seekers
should be the same across the EU. In 26 Member States at least three quarters of
respondents think the rules for allowing asylum seekers in should be the same across the
EU. The exception is Latvia where two thirds (67%) of respondents hold this view and
just under a third (30%) think that the rules should not be the same across the EU.
41 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
There is a wider variation in opinion between countries in relation to sharing the number
of asylum seekers more equally among Member States:
The view that the number of asylum seekers should be shared more equally across
Member States is strongest in Cyprus (93%), followed by Greece (89%), Belgium (88%),
Italy (87%), Spain (86%), Germany (86%) and Luxembourg (86%). This view is least
widespread in Latvia, where 55% of respondents agree that numbers should be shared
more equally and 40% - the highest proportion among all Member States – disagree with
this view. As reported earlier, respondents in Latvia are also the least likely of EU
respondents to think rules for admitting asylum seekers should be the same across the
EU, and among the least likely to think EU Member States should offer asylum to those in
need. Estonia (59%) and Romania (57%) are the only other countries where less than
six in ten respondents agree that numbers of asylum seekers should be shared more
equally across Member States.
42 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
As might be expected similar patterns of opinion by country tend to emerge in relation to
the view that the costs of providing asylum should be shared among all EU Member
States:
The 13 countries that exceed the EU average in terms of the proportion who agree that
costs should be shared are the same countries that exceed the EU average in terms of
the proportion agreeing that the number of asylum seekers should be shared more
equally.
The view that the costs of providing asylum should be shared among all EU Member
States is again most widespread in Cyprus, where 91% of respondents agree that this
should be the case. Similarly, respondents in Latvia and Romania are the least likely to
hold this view (61% and 57% respectively).
43 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
There are fewer differences between socio-demographic groups on these four measures
than on some of the attitudes towards migration already discussed. There are no notable
differences by gender, degree of urbanisation or the ability to pay bills. Age and terminal
education age discriminate somewhat on one of the four measures, with 15-24 year olds
(84%), those still studying (88%) and those who left education aged 20 or older (87%)
more likely than those aged 55+ (78%) and those who left education aged 15 or younger
(76%) to agree that EU Member States should offer asylum to those in need. Similarly, in
terms of occupation, managers are more likely than any other group to hold this view
(86%), and to think that the rules for admitting asylum seekers should be the same
across the EU (90%).
In line with the findings on other measures, although the differences are relatively small
in some cases, those who think it is important to be able to travel within the EU without
border controls are more likely than those who do not to agree that Member States
should offer asylum to those in need (85% vs. 73%); that admittance rules should be the
same across the EU (88% vs. 80%); that numbers should be more equally shared among
Member States (82% vs. 78%); and that costs of asylum provision should be shared
among all Member States (83 vs. 77%).
More marked differences exist between those who think the EU should encourage non-EU
labour migration and those who do not. Hence, those who hold this view are more likely
than those who do not agree that the EU should encourage labour migration to think that
EU Member States should offer asylum to those in need (91% vs. 72%): that the rules
for admittance should be the same across the EU (91% vs. 83%); that costs of providing
asylum should be shared among all EU Members (86% vs. 79%); and that the number of

During the interview respondents were told that the subject of irregular migration
features high on the EU’s political agenda before being asked their views on the role that
the EU, all Member States and individual Member States should take in handling such
irregular migration.8
Eight in ten respondents (80%) agree that the EU should increase its assistance to
Member States in handling irregular migration, with 39% saying that they “totally agree”.
A similar proportion (78%) of Europeans thinks the costs of handling such migration
should be shared among all EU Member States, with 41% “totally” agreeing. Opinion on
whether or not each Member State should handle irregular migration on its own is more
divided, with half of respondents disagreeing (50%) and a slightly smaller proportion
(44%) agreeing that this should be the case. Relative to the other two measures,
respondents are much less likely to “totally agree” (17%) and much more likely to
“totally disagree” (19%) that each Member State should handle irregular migration on its
own.

of irregular migration should be shared among all EU Members, EU15 is more likely than
NMS12 to agree (81% and 69% respectively) and to hold a stronger belief (45% “totally
agree” compared with 27%). In contrast, NMS12 is more likely than EU15 to disagree
(21% vs. 14%) or not be able to express an opinion (10% vs. 5%). Finally, in terms of
whether individual Member States should hold responsibility for handling irregular
migration, NMS12 is more likely than EU15 to agree that this should be so (50% vs.

countries (87%, 70% and 59% respectively) saying that they “totally agree” that the EU

more assistance should be provided by the EU, but still with a large majority in favour of
the EU providing more help, are Sweden (73%), Austria (72%) and Portugal (71%).
A broadly similar pattern emerges in relation to views on whether the costs of handling
irregular migration should be shared among all Member States:

The view that the costs of handling irregular migration should be shared among all

irregular migration should be shared among all Member States is strongest in Malta (89%

respectively). Again, the majority of respondents in each of these countries “totally
agree” with the statement (60% in, Malta 57% in Spain and 53% in Greece). Those
countries where respondents are least likely to agree that the costs of handling irregular
migration should be shared among Member States, but still with a majority favouring this
view, are Latvia (63%), Hungary (62%), Romania (61%) and Finland (60%).

that this should be the case, followed by Belgium (61%), Slovenia (59%), Lithuania
(55%), France (53%), Estonia (53%), Hungary (52%), the Netherlands (52%) and
Austria (52%). Those countries where respondents are least likely to agree that
individual Member States should handle irregular migration on their own are Cyprus
(22%) and Malta (15%), both countries where very large majorities are in favour of the

followed by Ireland (36%), Lithuania (38%), Slovenia (38%) and Belgium (38%).
There are no noteworthy socio-demographic differences in views held on these three
measures.
In line with the findings on other measures, although the differences are relatively small
in some cases, those who think it is important to be able to travel within the EU without
border controls are more likely than those who do not to think that the EU should
increase its assistance to Member States to handle irregular migration (83% vs. 75%)
and that handling costs should be shared among all EU Members (81% vs. 74%). They
are no more likely to think that each Member State should handle irregular migration on

SECURITY
This final chapter begins by examining Europeans’ perceptions of public security. It then
looks at whether Europeans believe the fight against terrorism and organised crime has
restricted fundamental rights and freedoms, and the role that they think the EU and
individual Member States should adopt to best tackle terrorism and organised crime. It
concludes with a section covering Europeans’ attitudes towards exploitation and the
importance they think the EU should place on tackling it.
3.1
Perceptions of security
Europeans believe to live in security
Almost all Europeans (90%) think their immediate neighbourhood is a secure place to
live in, with over half (53%) saying that they “totally agree”9, while a similar proportion
(89%) believe the city, town or village where they live is a secure place, with just under
half (49%) saying that they “totally agree”.
For the most part Europeans also think their own country and the EU are secure places to
live in, but they are less likely to express a strong sense of security than in relation to
their immediate locality. More than eight in ten Europeans (84%) think their country is a
secure place to live in, with just over a third (36%) saying that they “totally agree”. A
similar proportion (81%) think the EU is a secure place to live in, with just over a quarter
(28%) saying that they “totally agree”. Very few Europeans (no more than 3%) express
a strong belief that any of these places are insecure.

area is, along with Malta (96%). Again, those living in Finland and Denmark hold a
particularly strong belief, with around eight in ten respondents saying that they “totally
agree” that their local area is a secure place to live in (80% and 79% respectively).
Similar to perceptions on immediate neighbourhood, those countries with the least
positive views on how secure they feel in their local area are Hungary (73%), Bulgaria
(78%), Greece (78%), and Romania (79%).

“Awareness of home affairs”
Opinion on how secure Europeans think their country is as a place to live in is shown
below:
Across all Member States the majority view is that their country is a secure place to live
in. Once again, respondents in Finland (98%), Denmark (97%), Malta (97%), the
Netherlands (96%) and Austria (95%) are the most likely to hold this belief. Finland and
Denmark again have the highest proportion of respondents saying that they “totally
agree” (76% and 74% respectively). Similarly, those countries where respondents are
least likely to agree that their country is a secure place to live in - Hungary (65%),
Romania (66%), Bulgaria (67%) and Greece (71%) – are the countries that have the
least positive perceptions of neighbourhood and local security.
55 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
It is also the majority view, among all Member States, that the EU is a secure place to
live in:
Once again, people in Finland (92%), the Netherlands (91%) and Denmark (90%) hold
the most widespread belief that the EU is a secure place to live in, along with those in
Germany (90%). Respondents in Denmark are again the most likely to express strongly
positive views, just over half (52%) saying that they “totally agree” that the EU is a
secure place to live in, although this proportion is somewhat lower than for the local and
national measures. Those countries with the least positive views on how secure the EU is
are the UK (67%), Hungary (72%), Malta (73%) and Portugal (73%). Hungary
consistently holds the poorest perceptions of security (at neighbourhood, local and
country level). Portugal’s perceptions of security are consistently below the EU average
at all four levels.
56 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
The UK holds below EU average perceptions of security at a local and country level, with
views on the immediate neighbourhood in line with the EU average. However, in Malta
perceptions among respondents on the security of their immediate neighbourhood, local
area and, in particular, country are strong (above the EU average by +5, +7 and +13
percentage points respectively).
Socio-demographically, there is no notable variation in attitude towards the security at
any of the four levels (EU, country, local area and immediate neighbourhood) between
men and women. There is some discrimination by age-related criteria on perceptions of
security at EU and country level. 15-24 year olds (84%) and those still studying (89%)
are more likely than those aged 55+ (78%), and in particular those aged 75+ (75%), to
think the EU is a safe place to live in. So, too, are those with a terminal education age of
20+ (88%), compared with 15- (74%). In relation to perceptions of how secure the
respondent’s own country is, there is no age variation, but some variation by terminal
education age with those finishing at aged 20+ (88%) more likely than those finishing
education aged 15- (81%) to think their country is a secure place to live in. Whether or
not the respondent lives in a rural or urban location makes no difference to the attitude
held on security at an EU level. At national, local and immediate neighbourhood levels
those who live in rural areas (87%, 94% and 95% respectively) are more likely than
those who live in towns, and in particular large towns (82%, 84% and 85%), to think
these are secure places to live in.
Perceptions about security at EU, country, local and immediate neighbourhood levels
show consistent patterns and marked differences by measures of occupation and
affluence. Occupationally, managers are the most likely, and the unemployed the least
likely to hold positive perceptions. The proportions of these two groups agreeing that
each locality is secure are:

EU: managers 87% vs. unemployed 75%

Country: 90% vs. 79%

Local: 93% vs. 84%

Immediate neighbourhood: 94% vs. 84%.
57 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
Similarly, those who hardly ever struggle to pay bills are the most likely, and those
struggling most of the time are the least likely to have positive opinions:

EU: hardly ever struggle to pay bills 84% vs. struggling most of the time 69%

Country: 88% vs. 72%,

Local: 92% vs. 81%

Immediate neighbourhood: 94% vs. 81%
In line with the findings on other measures, although the differences are relatively small
in some cases, those who think it is important to be able to travel within the EU without
border controls are more likely than those who do not to agree that the EU is secure
(87% vs. 69%); their country is secure (87% vs. 78%); their local area is secure (91%
vs. 86%) and that the immediate neighbourhood is secure (92% vs. 88%). Similarly,
those who agree that the EU should encourage labour migration from non-EU countries
are more likely than those who do not to think that the EU is secure (87% vs. 76%);
country is secure (88% vs. 81%); local area is secure (92% vs. 87%); and immediate
neighbourhood is secure (92% vs. 89%).

Rights and freedoms
Opinion on whether the fight against terrorism and organised crime has
restricted fundamental rights and freedoms in the EU is divided
Just under half (48%) of Europeans think fundamental rights and freedoms have been
restricted in the EU because of the fight against terrorism and organised crime, with
most saying “yes, to some extent” (38%), and only a small minority (10%) saying “yes,
a great deal”.10 A slightly smaller proportion of Europeans (44%) do not think
fundamental rights and freedoms have been restricted, with most saying “no, not really”
(31%).
There are only small differences in opinion between respondents living in EU15 and those
living in NMS12, with EU15 (49%) slightly more likely than NMS12 (46%) to think
fundamental rights and freedoms have been restricted in the EU.
Within Europe opinion varies considerably:
10
QB5. “Do you consider that fundamental rights and freedoms have been restricted in the EU for reasons
related to the fight against terrorism and organised crime? (READ OUT – ONE ANSWER ONLY) Yes, a great
deal; Yes, to some extent; No, not really; No, not at all; Don’t know”
60 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
The belief that fundamental rights and freedoms have been restricted in the EU because
of the fight against terrorism and organised crime is the absolute majority view in eleven
Member States. Respondents in Cyprus (62%), Sweden (62%) and Greece (60%) are
most likely to think this is the case, followed by those in the UK (57%), Austria (57%)
and Slovenia (57%). Indeed, in Cyprus and Greece around a fifth of respondents say
“yes, a great deal” (18% and 21% respectively).
The contrasting view, that fundamental rights and freedoms have not been restricted in
the EU because of the fight against terrorism and organised crime, is the absolute
majority view held in just four Member States: the Czech Republic (51%), Latvia (51%),
Germany (56%) and Finland (63%).
61 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
There are four countries where opinions are evenly split between those who do and those
who do not think fundamental rights and freedoms have been restricted: Denmark (48%
vs. 50%), Belgium (48% vs. 50%), Luxembourg (47% vs. 48%) and Spain (45% vs.
43%).
Whilst only a small minority of all Europeans (8%) are unable to express an opinion on
this measure, this proportion is much higher in Malta (26%), and also relatively high in
Portugal (17%), Bulgaria (17%) and Ireland (16%).
There is little socio-demographic variation in the profile of respondents in terms of
gender, age-related groups and the degree of urbanisation. There are some small
differences by people’s occupational and economic circumstances. Those in white collar
occupations who are not managers (53%), and the unemployed (51%), are more likely
than those in other occupations, and in particular those who have retired (45%), to think
fundamental rights and freedoms are constrained. Similarly, those who struggle to pay
bills most of the time (53%) are more likely to hold this view than those who hardly ever
struggle (46%).
In terms of the attitudinal sub-groups, and in line with findings on other measures, those
who think the EU should encourage non-EU labour migration (58%) are much more likely
than those who disagree such migration should be encouraged (44%) to believe that
fundamental rights and freedoms have been restricted. So, too, are those who think it
important to be able to travel within the EU without border controls (51%), compared
with those who do not (42%).

“Awareness of home affairs”
Terrorism and organized crime
This section examines Europeans’ attitudes towards terrorism and organised crime in
terms of how they think it should be tackled.
Most Europeans think EU institutions and Member State governments should
work more closely together, and that the EU should increase financial support
to Member States to tackle terrorism and organised crime. Opinion is more
divided on whether the EU should provide financial and practical aid to non-EU
countries and on whether Member States are capable of countering the threats
on their own.
Nine in ten Europeans (91%) agree, and just over half (52%) “totally agree”, that EU
institutions and individual Member State governments should work more closely together
in order to fight terrorism and organised crime11. Only a very small minority (6%)
disagree that EU institutions and national governments should work more closely with
each other.
Three quarters (75%) of Europeans think the EU should provide more financial support to
Member States to help tackle terrorism and organised crime, with one in three (32%)
saying that they “totally agree”. A fifth of Europeans (20%) disagree that the EU should
provide more financial aid to Member States.
Opinion on whether EU should provide financial and practical support to non-EU countries
as a means of fighting terrorism and organised crime is more divided. Just over half
(54%) of all Europeans agree, with less than a fifth (18%) saying that they “totally
agree”; and just four in ten (41%) disagree, with a broadly similar proportion (16%)
saying that they “totally disagree”.
Opinion is also divided in relation to whether Member States are able to counter threats
of terrorism and organised crime on their own, although the balance of opinion is
marginally towards respondents disagreeing (48% disagree vs. 46% agree).

64 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
There are some differences between EU15 and NMS12. NMS12 (86%) is much more
likely than EU15 (72%) to think the EU should provide more financial support to Member
States, and much more likely to “totally agree” that it should do so (42% vs. 29%
respectively). NMS12 (58%) is also more likely than EU15 (53%) to think the EU should
provide financial and practical support to non-EU countries, but, in this case, only slightly
more likely to “totally agree” that it should do so (20% vs. 17%). Finally, NMS12 (50%)
is slightly more likely than EU15 (45%) to think Member States are able to counter these
threats on their own.
There is little variation between countries on the opinion that EU institutions and
governments of Member States should work more closely together as an effective way of
tackling terrorism and organised crime:
65 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
Across all countries more than eight out of ten respondents agree, and in 22 Member
States more than nine out of ten agree that EU institutions and national governments
should work more closely together. Those countries where respondents are most likely to
agree are Cyprus (98%), Malta (96%), Slovenia (96%) and Luxembourg (96%). Indeed
in Cyprus, almost nine in ten respondents (87%) say that they “totally agree” that EU
institutions and national governments should collaborate more closely. Those countries
where respondents are least likely to agree are the UK (87%), Austria (84%) and
Portugal (82%). Portugal has a particularly high proportion of respondents unable to give
a view on this measure (10%, compared to the EU average of 3%).
66 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
There is a much wider variation between countries on the opinion that the EU should
provide more financial support to Member States as an effective means of fighting
terrorism and organised crime:
The majority of respondents in all Member States agree that the EU should provide more
financial support to Member States as a means of tackling terrorism and organised crime.
Again, respondents in Cyprus (96%) and Malta (95%) are most likely to agree, followed
by those in Bulgaria (92%) and Greece (91%). As with the previous measure, support for
this view is particularly strong in Cyprus, with 85% of respondents saying that they
“totally agree” that the EU should provide more financial support to Member States.
Those countries where respondents are least likely to agree that the provision of
additional funding from the EU is an effective way of fighting terrorism and organised
crime are Germany (59%), Denmark (58%) and the Netherlands (52%).
67 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
The absolute majority of respondents in 16 Member States agree that the EU should
provide financial and practical support to non-EU countries to help tackle terrorism and
organised crime.
Those countries where respondents are most likely to agree that the EU should provide
financial and practical support to non-EU countries are Sweden (69%) and Poland (68%),
while those where this opinion is least prevalent are the Czech Republic (43%), Austria
(42%), France (40%), Slovenia (40%) and Slovakia (38%). The balance of opinion is
very evenly distributed in four Member States:

Luxembourg (47% agree; 49% disagree)

The Netherlands (48% agree; 50% disagree)

Finland (47% agree; 50% disagree)

Belgium (48% agree; 51% disagree)
68 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
Opinion on Member States’ ability to fight terrorism and organised crime by countering
such threats on their own varies widely across countries:
This is the absolute majority view in only six countries, and most prevalent in Poland,
where around three fifths (62%) of respondents hold the view that Member States are
able to counter terrorism and organised crime on their own. In the other five of these
countries only a small majority agree that Member States are best able to counter these
threats on their own: Italy (54%), Belgium (54%), France (53%), Romania (52%) and
the Netherlands (52%). Those countries where respondents are least likely to agree that
Member States are capable of tackling terrorism and organised crime on their own are
Sweden (24%) and Cyprus (16%).
69 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
The chart below shows the rank order of countries in terms of the proportion disagreeing
that Member States are best equipped to tackle these threats on their own.
There are 15 countries where the absolute majority of respondents disagree that Member
States are able to counter terrorism and organised crime independently. Respondents in
Cyprus (80%) and Sweden (74%) are the most likely to disagree, with those in Cyprus
particularly likely to say that they “totally disagree” (41%). Those countries where
respondents are least likely to disagree are Bulgaria (37%), Romania (35%), and Poland
(30%).
70 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
There is no notable socio-demographic variation in respondents’ opinions about how to
best fight terrorism and organised crime in terms of gender, age, the degree of
urbanisation and the ability to pay household bills. In terms of occupation, managers are
more likely than any other group to agree that EU institutions and governments should
work more closely together to fight terrorism and organised crime (95%), and less likely
than any other group to think the EU should provide more financial support to its
Members (69%), or that Member States can count these threats on their own (41%).
They are one of the most likely occupational groups to think the EU providing financial
and practical support to non-EU countries is a best way of fighting terrorism and
organised crime (56%), along with other white collar workers (57%) and housepersons
(56%).
Again, as noted on other measures, there are differences between those who think it
important to be able to travel within the EU without border controls and those who do
not, and those in favour of the EU encouraging non-EU labour migration and those who
are not. Those who believe it important to be able to travel without border controls are
more likely than those who do not hold this view to agree that the EU should provide
more financial support to its Members (80% vs. 66% respectively); that it should provide
financial and practical support to non-EU countries (59% vs. 44%); that Member States
are best able to counter terrorism and organised crime (49% vs. 41%) and that EU
institutions and governments should work more closely together (94% vs. 87%).
Similarly, those who think the EU should encourage non-EU labour migration are more
likely than those who do not to think that the EU should provide more financial support to
its Members (81% vs. 71% respectively); that it should provide financial and practical
support to non-EU countries (69% vs. 42%); that Member States are best able to
counter terrorism and organised crime (54% vs. 41%) and that EU institutions and
governments should work more closely together (94% vs. 91%), although the difference
on this last opinion is not very marked.

Labour and sexual exploitation
The final section of this chapter examines how important Europeans believe it is for the
EU to address labour and sexual exploitation.
Almost all Europeans think it is important for the EU to address labour and
sexual exploitation.
Almost all Europeans (93%) believe it is important for the EU to address labour and
sexual exploitation, with just over three in five (62%) thinking it very important for the
EU to address these problems.12 Only a very small minority (5%) do not think it is
important for the EU to address these forms of exploitation.
There is no difference in the views of EU15 and NMS12, and very little variation by
country:
12
QB11. “Some people are forced into labour or sexual exploitation throughout the world and also in the EU.
How important would you say it is for the EU to address this problem? (READ OUT – ONE ANSWER ONLY) Very
important, Fairly important, Not very important, Not at all important, Don’t know”
73 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
In all countries the vast majority of respondents think it is important for the EU to
address labour and sexual exploitation problems. There is only a small difference (9
percentage points) between those countries with the highest proportion of respondents
thinking that it is important for the EU to address such exploitation - Sweden (98%) and
Finland (98%) - and the two countries with the lowest level of respondents thinking that
it is important – France (89%) and Bulgaria (89%).
There is, however, much wider variation in the strength of opinion across countries.
Respondents in Cyprus, Sweden, and Malta hold particularly strong views, with at least
eight in ten respondents saying that it is “very important” for the EU to tackle labour and
sexual exploitation (89%, 87% and 81% respectively). In contrast, less than half of all
respondents in Austria (45%) think it “very important”.
74 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380

There are no marked socio-demographic variations and only a small difference in one of

without border controls are slightly more likely than those who do not to think it is
important for the EU to address problems with labour and sexual exploitation (94% vs.

CONCLUSION
This survey sets out to explore Europeans’ attitudes and perceptions in relation to the
two key EU policy areas for which DG HOME is responsible: building a common EU
migration and asylum policy and ensuring EU security. This concluding section draws
together the findings of the research and considers some of the policy implications.
Migration and asylum
Whilst the majority of Europeans believe that legal immigrants should have the same
rights as national citizens, only a small majority think that immigration brings positive
and tangible benefits to their country. Europeans are divided on whether the EU should
encourage labour migration from non-EU countries at all.
Europeans also widely believe there to be barriers to the successful integration of non-EU
immigrants into their country, on the one hand because of the discrimination that exists
in their countries, but on the other because they believe that immigrants do not wish to
integrate. This perceived lack of desire to integrate among immigrants is somewhat more
widely cited as a barrier to successful integration than the discrimination that they may
face.
There is an apparent widespread mistrust in the reliability of the information and data on
which discussion about immigration in the EU is based. More people distrust this
information than trust it, although a relatively large proportion of people acknowledge
that they are not sufficiently informed to make a judgement on this issue.
There is more consensus in relation to issues associated with asylum. First and foremost,
the vast majority of Europeans favour EU Member States offering protection and asylum
to those in need. Second, Europeans broadly favour policies that seek a fair distribution
of both the costs associated with asylum and the numbers of asylum seekers across EU
Member States.
Most Europeans also believe that the EU should increase the assistance it provides to
Member States in handling irregular migration, although there is a somewhat
contradictory view among around half of Europeans that individual Member States should
handle irregular migration independently.
76 SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380
“Awareness of home affairs”
In relation to human trafficking, however, there is a strong consensus of opinion among
Europeans, with almost all thinking it important, and a majority believing it very
important, for the EU to address labour and sexual exploitation.
Cross-border mobility and security
Most Europeans feel secure at all geographical levels within the EU, particularly in their
immediate and local neighbourhoods, and with at least four in five thinking that their
country and the EU are secure places to live in. Only a very small minority (no more than
3%) express a strong belief that any of these places are insecure.
A majority of Europeans as well as feeling secure within the EU value the freedom to
cross internal borders without being subject to border checks and think it is important for
them to be able to travel within the EU in this way. However, there is considerable
national variation between countries. The majority of Europeans also think it should be
easier for non-EU citizens to travel to the EU for business or leisure purposes.
On issues of cross-national security, there is widespread support amongst Europeans for
Member States acting together to tackle terrorism and organised crime, with the vast
majority agreeing that EU institutions and Member State governments should work more
closely together. Most also hold the view, that the EU should provide more financial
support to Member States in fighting terrorism and organised crime. However, there is an
apparently contradictory view, held by just under half of all Europeans, that Member
States can counter these threats independently.
Concerning cooperation with non-EU countries, with the aim of working jointly with them
to tackle the common threats of terrorism and organised crime, Europeans are divided on
whether the EU should provide financial and practical support to non-EU countries, with
just over half of all Europeans agreeing that the EU provide this support.
Finally, while Europeans feel safe in the EU and value unrestricted freedom of movement
within the EU territory, there is perception among just under half of Europeans that
fundamental rights and freedoms have been restricted in the EU because of the fight
against terrorism and organised crime, although few perceive these rights and freedoms
to have been severely compromised.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Between the 3rd and the 18th of December 2011, TNS Opinion & Social, a consortium created between TNS plc and TNS opinion, carried out the wave
76.4 of the EUROBAROMETER, on request of the EUROPEAN COMMISSION, Directorate-General for Communication, “Research and Speechwriting”.
The SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 380 is part of wave 76.4 and covers the population of the respective nationalities of the European Union Member
States, resident in each of the Member States and aged 15 years and over. The basic sample design applied in all states is a multi-stage, random
(probability) one. In each country, a number of sampling points was drawn with probability proportional to population size (for a total coverage of the
country) and to population density.
In order to do so, the sampling points were drawn systematically from each of the "administrative regional units", after stratification by individual unit
and type of area. They thus represent the whole territory of the countries surveyed according to the EUROSTAT NUTS II (or equivalent) and according
to the distribution of the resident population of the respective nationalities in terms of metropolitan, urban and rural areas. In each of the selected
sampling points, a starting address was drawn, at random. Further addresses (every Nth address) were selected by standard "random route"
procedures, from the initial address. In each household, the respondent was drawn, at random (following the "closest birthday rule"). All interviews
were conducted face-to-face in people's homes and in the appropriate national language. As far as the data capture is concerned, CAPI (Computer
Assisted Personal Interview) was used in those countries where this technique was available.

“Awareness of home affairs”
For each country a comparison between the sample and the universe was carried out. The Universe description was derived from Eurostat population
data or from national statistics offices. For all countries surveyed, a national weighting procedure, using marginal and intercellular weighting, was
carried out based on this Universe description. In all countries, gender, age, region and size of locality were introduced in the iteration procedure. For
international weighting (i.e. EU averages), TNS Opinion & Social applies the official population figures as provided by EUROSTAT or national statistic
offices. The total population figures for input in this post-weighting procedure are listed above.
Readers are reminded that survey results are estimations, the accuracy of which, everything being equal, rests upon the sample size and upon the
observed percentage. With samples of about 1,000 interviews, the real percentages vary within the following confidence limits:
Observed percentages
10% or 90%
20% or 80%
30% or 70%
40% or 60%
50%

QB6 Concernant les défis d’ordre démographique à venir (par ex. le vieillissement de la population) et le besoin de
répondre au manque de main-d’œuvre dans certains secteurs économiques de l'UE (par ex. les soins de santé, les
nouvelles technologies), certaines personnes pensent que l’UE devrait encourager la migration de travailleurs provenant
de pays hors UE. Diriez-vous que vous êtes … ?
QB6 When thinking about the demographic challenges ahead (e.g. ageing population) and the need for filling in labour
shortages in certain sectors of EU economy (e.g. healthcare, new technologies), some people think that the EU should
encourage labour migration from non-EU countries. Would you say you…?
QB6 Mit Blick auf die bevorstehenden demografischen Herausforderungen (z.B. die alternde Bevölkerung) und die
Notwendigkeit, den Mangel an Arbeitskräften in bestimmten Wirtschaftsbereichen der EU auszugleichen (z.B.
Gesundheitswesen, neue Technologien), sind einige Menschen der Meinung, dass die EU die Zuwanderung von
Arbeitskräften aus Nicht-EU-Ländern fördern sollte. Würden Sie dem voll und ganz zustimmen, eher zustimmen, eher
nicht zustimmen oder überhaupt nicht zustimmen?
