Is the EU about to adopt the Governments policy of sending illegal immigrants to another country for processing?

Perhaps we could ask the Irish that instead of sending illegal immigrants to this country they could send them directly to Rwanda thereby cutting out the middle man.
One needs to send them back to the first safe country they entered. There they may request/claim asylum (maybe) but anywhere further on they are just illegal immigrants. And the RoI must be utterly insane to think that even Sunak is gullible enough that he would permit accepting back these claimed to be immigrants from the UK. a) it is the EU and it's member nations that allowed illegals to travel to their end (RoI) destination, and b) if France aren't accepting the illegals they were paid to (fail to) stop travelling onwards clearly the RoI is living in cloud cuckoo land to think any legislation they pass internally will ensure we'd accept them back. EU nations are responsible for not nipping this in the bud, their member states can cope with the consequences.
It would be very funny if true, but sadly it aint.
The proposal/policy is a aim of a group in the European parliament, and is part of their manifesto for the election in June.
So even if they get the necessary votes in June, they will have to first write a proposal and get every one in the EU to vote for it and pass it into European law. Then implement it.
Even when all those 'ifs' are achieved, it will takes years to come in effect.

It won't require any EU legislation. Any undesireables that Ireland does not fancy keeping can simply be collected and taken to Northern Ireland (or indeed anywhere else in the UK, though NI would seem to be the most convenient for the Irish authorities). There, they can be left and it will be for the UK authorities to deal with them.
The Common Travel Area means that there are no restrictions on the movement of people between Ireland and the UK. That has nothing to do with the EU.
I can't actually see Ireland doing this, but to say they cannot do so without EU legislation is not correct.
