Asylum Min. says she doesn't have to ask Inspectorate's opinion on laws after criticism

Minister Marjolein Faber of Asylum and Migration says that she was not obliged to consult the Justice and Security Inspectorate for her new asylum laws. The Inspectorate told the newspaper Trouw that the Minister had ignored the rules by presenting her laws without asking it for its opinion.

She said that she only consulted the directly involved organizations because the Ministry was in a hurry with the emergency laws. According to Trouw, the Ministry’s “Instructions regarding the national inspectorates and the Relationship Statute” stipulate that draft legislation and regulations be submitted to the relevant national inspectorate “at an early stage.” The Instructions are binding, although there are no direct consequences for ignoring them, the Inspectorate told the newspaper.
