The Treaty of Amsterdam transferred responsibility for free movement of persons (e.g. visas, illegal immigration, asylum) from the Justice and Home Affairs (JHA) pillar to the European Community (JHA was renamed Police and Judicial Co-operation in Criminal Matters (PJCC) as a result).
It was based more around intergovernmental cooperation than the other pillars meaning there was little input from the European Commission, European Parliament and the Court of Justice.
It ceased to exist when it was integrated in the so-called Justice and Home Affairs (JHA) pillar of the European Union (EU) upon into force of the Treaty of Maastricht in 1992.
