Parliamentary Hearing on Streamlined Asylum Procedures
October 2015
Germany has been confronted with a dramatic increase of the number of asylum seekers over the summer. The government’s reaction includes a bill introducing a mix of policy initiatives on streamlined asylum procedures, a more effective return policy and facilitated integration policies. At an expert hearing in the Home Affaires Committee of the German Bundestag, Daniel Thym assesses the Bill in written observations and oral interventions which can be followed on parliamentary TV.
