Minister Keijzer for asylum and migration takes measures to get the occupation in the Ter Apel registration center among 2000 people. In recent days there were regularly more asylum seekers in the registration center than agreed with the municipality of Westerwolde.

In asylum seekers’ centers throughout the country, around 2000 are so -called nastyizers with a residence permit, a family member of which is already housed in his municipality. Narei wereers will be referred to the municipality where their family member lives. There will of course be contact with the municipality about this. They go to their family member as much as possible. Now the NareiZigers are still waiting in an AZC.

Minister Keijzer: ‘We run into the boundaries of what we can do and that is why we immediately start with this. After all, we promised that we will keep Ter Apel under 2000 ‘.

Small families are first sent to the sponsor. For example, the COA is working on a solution to relieve the asylum chain. At the same time, the Central Agency for the Reception of Asylum Seekers no longer records new nicizers with a residence permit, the sponsor of which is already housed in the municipality. Those people are immediately reunited with their family. The situation in the reception and the high number of namesisers shows that in addition to the above measures in the short term, there is a necessity to get a grip on migration. The inflow of nicizers is limited by the asylum measurement measures law and the two -status system Act.
