Brussels, (Brussels Morning)- In order to free up more places for vulnerable groups such as minors, women and families in the saturated reception network, State Secretary for Asylum and Migration Nicole de Moor (CD&V) wants asylum seekers with a long-term employment contract to leave the network. She has ordered Fedasil, the federal agency responsible for the reception of asylum seekers, to implement this emergency measure, her cabinet confirmed on Thursday.
A study by the crossroads bank Social Security shows that about 2,000 asylum seekers are working with long-term contracts.
