Compulsory integration programme in Brussels delayed for a fifth time

3 comments
  1. The compulsory integration programme in Brussels, which was supposed to start on 1 April next Friday, will be postponed until June. Several municipalities indicated that they are not ready to introduce the obligation.

    The compulsory integration programme in Brussels was approved in 2017 and was supposed to be a reality on 1 January 2020. Since then, the obligation has been postponed four times. “This dossier has been dragging on for years. The municipalities are now sending Minister Maron the signal that his approach is amateurish and that this cannot continue. Hopefully he will listen,” says Brussels MP for the Flemish parliament Annabel Tavernier (N-VA).

    In principle, the obligation will come into effect in June.

    >Alain Maron stated that the united college of the Common Community Commission (GCC/CCC) has already approved the new legislation in the first reading on 16 December. “I confirm that the obligatory integration programme will be in force on 1 April,” his spokesman responds.

  2. I suggest Belgium hosts the “which politician f*cks up the most” prize yearly.

    I’m going to go ahead and nominate Maron, Beke and Van Der Straeten anyways.
