Considering that the migratory situation can rapidly change and that there is increased pressure resulting from the arrivals of mixed migratory flows with a high proportion of persons with low chances of receiving international protection, Member States should be able to apply Article 42(1), point (j), and Article 42(3), point (e), of Regulation (EU) 2024/1348 from an earlier date than the general date of application of that Regulation to accelerate the examination of applications, provided that Member States have transposed the relevant provisions and implemented the special procedures set out in Directive 2013/32/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council. That would allow Member States to react quickly and in a flexible manner to changes in the migratory flows. Considering that applications from such applicants are likely to be unfounded, dealing with them swiftly in an accelerated procedure or a border procedure would allow the asylum and migration authorities to assess genuine claims more efficiently, deliver faster decisions and thereby contribute to better and more credible functioning of asylum and return policies, in full respect of fundamental rights.
