People are going to Utrecht, Stadskanaal, Zuidbroek, Almere and Groningen, a spokeswoman for the Central Agency for the Reception of Asylum Seekers COA reported. About 390 people can leave the application center, which has been very busy for some time and hundreds of people sleep outside.
At least fifty people can go to Almere, a hundred go to the Jaarbeurs in Utrecht. According to the spokeswoman, despite the fact that buses are ready, people still doubt whether they want to come and some also walk away from the buses, they do not want to come. She cannot say how many are left.

The municipality of Utrecht will first receive asylum seekers in the Jaarbeurs on Friday. On Saturday they will be housed in a different location in the city or region, mayor Sharon Dijksma, chairman of the Utrecht Security Region, reported.
In order to help solve the ‘dire and acute situation’, the municipality of Utrecht will soon send its own people to Ter Apel to help. This includes crisis managers and other auxiliary troops who will provide support to ensure that registration and the reception of people run as quickly and smoothly as possible.
