Over the past few months, the council has been taken through informative and image-forming meetings on the choices and decision-making to be made by the city council for 4 components under the Omgevingswet. These are the components 'delegation', 'participation in relation to the Omgevingswet', 'extended procedure' and 'the binding advisory right by the council'.

8. Reforming Financial Unburdening - Steven Grevink

The college decides to reform the way of working regarding the financial unburdening of assisted asylum status holders. We shift the focus from technical financial relief to self-reliance. The fixed costs of asylum status holders will no longer be paid from the Social assistance benefit. Instead, they are supported to use direct debits. Asylum status holders receive social support from LEV Refugee Council. This is the working method we used before the start of the Integration Act 2021. Through the proposed working method we can offer support that meets the needs of the asylum status holder.

College Decision:

  • To reform the working method regarding financially relieving welfare recipients of asylum status holders to promote financial self-sufficiency;
  • To approve the text for the council information letter and forward it to the council.
