THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,Having regard to the Treaty on European Union,Having regard to Council Decision 2008/839/JHA of 24 October 2008 on migration from the Schengen Information System (SIS 1+) to the second generation Schengen Information System (SIS II)^note, and in particular Article 11(2) thereof,Whereas:

(1)Article 11(2) of Decision 2008/839/JHA of 24 October provides for the migration of the Member States participating in SIS 1+ from N.SIS to N.SIS II using the interim migration architecture, with the support of France and of the Commission, by 30 September 2009 at the latest.
