In view of the fact that National Consultation questionnaires are still being returned in huge numbers, the Government is extending the deadline for their submission by a week. Accordingly, the questionnaires may now be sent back by return post until 1 December (next Friday).

The extension of the deadline is also justified by the fact that based on last week’s decision by the European Parliament, the resettlement programme is now due to be launched. We would like to give everyone the opportunity to also voice their opinions on the subject within the framework of the National Consultation.
