New Distribution Act assignment has no consequences for Midden-Delfland
The new Distribution Act assignment from the Minister of Asylum and Migration has no consequences for Midden-Delfland: with the AZC in Den Hoorn, the municipality more than meets the legal requirement. This means that no new or other reception locations will be established.
The national government announced the new capacity planning under the Distribution Act at the end of last week. For Midden-Delfland, the legal assignment has decreased from 133 to 119 reception places. With the AZC opened last month in Den Hoorn, the municipality more than meets this requirement.
“Expanding reception capacity, with or without a second AZC location, is not on the agenda,” states responsible alderman Fred Voskamp. “We already meet the legal requirement, this new capacity planning changes nothing for Midden-Delfland.”
