Article

de Senate has overwhelmingly passed two asylum measures die were previously controversial.

als een result, de Immigration and Naturalization Service (IND) will soon geen longer have te pay fines te asylum seekers die wait te long voor een decision op their stay in de Netherlands.

er will ook become easier te declare criminal asylum seekers 'undesirable' and deport ze als ze commit crimes die carry een prison sentence van om least two years.

Faber's Laws Both measures are part van de emergency asylum measures van former asylum minister Faber (PVV).

dit law zijn initially rejected in April in de Senate because er would criminalize illegal residence in de Netherlands and helping, among others, failed asylum seekers.

Asylum Minister Van den Brink has managed te doorvoeren de fines and de expansion van de undesirable declaration door een different law.

He linked ze te de Return and Alien Detention Act, die zijn approved vandaag and regulates meer forceful deportations van failed asylum seekers, while ook improving humane conditions in detention centers.

Nearly 100 Million Euros in Fines Support van de largest party in de Senate, Pro, voor example, came due te de humane character van detention facilities in de new law.

Senator Rosenmöller emphasized die de current detention regime has led te suicides, such als die van Russian activist Dolmatov in 2013.

However, Pro does niet favor abolishing de fines, als ze prompt de IND te work faster.

Nonetheless, een majority van de Chamber wants te end de fines because de costs voor de IND are skyrocketing.

Last year, 79 million euros were spent, and in de first half van dit year, de amount zijn already nearly 100 million euros.

After de rejection van de emergency asylum measures, Van den Brink expressed de intention te push door their content in parliament.

dit has been partially successful met de introduction van de European Migration Pact een few months later.

Last week, he ook proposed making de refusal te return te de country van origin een criminal offense.
