Netherlands approves imprisoning rejected asylum seekers
The Dutch Senate has approved a law expanding authorities' powers to compel foreigners who are not permitted to stay to cooperate with removal procedures. The law includes imposing penalties of up to three months in prison or a fine for those who refuse to comply. It also broadens the powers to designate certain convicted foreigners as undesirable persons and eliminates fines previously imposed on the immigration office for delays in issuing decisions, affecting asylum seekers, including Syrians. While the law reduces penalties for those who are late or delayed, it does not automatically impose imprisonment on all rejected applicants.
