380 miljoen (!) per jaar gereserveerd voor dwangsommen aan gelukzoekers, die dankzij een pervers verdienmodel van slinkse advocaten in de asielindustrie “te lang” wachten tot ze horen of ze ons gratis geld, huis en zorg krijgen. Wat een doodziek land… https://t.co/YD8Tcvmyz2 #asielbeleid #gelukzoekers #rechtspraak
Dat kan er ook nog wel bij: Dwangsomfeestje voor asielzoekers. Bijna 400 miljoen staat (alvast) ingeboekt. Niet normaal meer wat de overheid dit land allemaal aandoet 😒 https://t.co/dwBKHxq8F1 #asielzoekers #overheid # Nederland
➡️ Dit jaar is 380 miljoen euro gereserveerd voor het uitbetalen van #dwangsommen aan #asielzoekers. De IND laat weten dit jaar al zo'n 112 miljoen te hebben uitgekeerd. ➡️ De Eerste Kamer zou zich afgelopen dinsdag buigen over een wetsvoorstel dat de afschaffing van de dwangsommen regelt. De behandeling is echter verplaatst naar 13 oktober. De Tweede Kamer was eerder al akkoord. ➡️ Het afschaffen van de asieldwangsommen was ook al opgenomen in de #Asielnoodmaatregelenwet, maar die sneuvelde afgelopen april in de Eerste Kamer door tegenstemmen van o.a. PVV en coalitiepartijen D66 en CDA. ➡️ Hoewel in andere EU-landen ook via de rechter kan worden geklaagd over te trage procedures, kent geen enkel ander EU-land een vergelijkbaar automatisme of een vergelijkbare schaal waarin deze specifieke dwangsommen rechtstreeks als geldbedrag aan de asielzoeker worden uitbetaald. Hoe lang gaat deze waanzin nog door? https://t.co/pDXrZNjU1F #asielzoekers #dwangsommen #Nederland
