Report on the Performance of Activities of the National Preventive Mechanism for 2015 helping the countries of first entry, regardless of them being EU members (relocation) or third countries (resettlement). In these procedures, the distribution of refugees in countries depends primarily on the total number of inhabitants and the GDP, but also on the average number of applicants for international protection in the period from 2010-2014, as well as the unemployment rate. At the proposal of the EC, most EU member states adopted the decision on reception of a certain number of refugees via so-called quotas, but the actual implementation of this plan is slow and inefficient.
