British Prime Minister David Cameron and the Government of the Netherlands gained a powerful ally in the fight for the sealing of national labor markets and social security systems. The coalition of opponents of tourism benefits joined Germany. I just came into force amended by Angela Merkel’s government legislation that allows legally dispose of the troublesome guest workers from Germany in Central Europe.
Berlin changed the law on the free movement of persons. It provides for, among others, the introduction of new sanctions against EU nationals, which is to receive a residence permit in the case if the immigrant will not be able to find a job for six months, or if he proves his swindling benefits. The government declared a war on people simulating self-employment. Wherein itself is not able to determine the extent of the phenomenon. Another point is the more control the provision of child allowances.
Changes were made despite the lack of evidence that Polish immigrants, Romania and Bulgaria are abusing the hospitality of Germany.
According to the German Institute for Labour Market Research and Competition unemployment rate among living on the river Spree Bulgarians and Romanians in mid-2013. was 7.4 per cent., while the Poles – 12.2 percent. These results are lower than the average for all foreigners, which amounted to 14.7 percent.
– It is not so that the Germans did not particularly like the Bulgarians and Romanians. Immigration somehow hurting them, since 17 per cent in the polls. of them admit that it feels like a stranger in his own country, and the proportion of foreigners is estimated to be ten percentage points higher than it actually is – concludes the analyst department of the German Centre for Eastern Studies Artur Ciechanowicz.
Who is cheating, this comes out of Germany
The right of residence will lose also those who, after six months of arrival in Germany will not be able to explain the employment office, why continue are unemployed. Change is to be also a way of granting benefits for the child. Now, after reporting mother Kindergeld, we will need your tax identification number and child. This is to prevent multiple applications for benefits in various offices for the same child.
Romanian If a fraud?
According to the government’s dealings extort child allowances were involved criminal groups in Germany, Bulgaria and Romania. Besides, was not the only way in which, according to Berlin impaled himself purse criminals at the expense of the welfare system. Another method was to force immigrants to register a business, and then downloading on behalf of unemployment benefits. In Germany, if self-employed does not have income, you should benefit him. The federal government, however, was not able to estimate the magnitude of these criminal procederów. Interestingly, the novel has been developed rapidly, and the cost of its introduction was estimated at 3.6 million euro (it changes the wording of other laws, including income tax and combat undeclared work). The government introduced it, despite the lack of evidence that labor migration from Central Europe abusing the hospitality of Germany. The data confirm rather the opposite trend. In Germany, only 195 pending investigations of benefit fraud committed by citizens of Central Europe.
How to convince an analyst of the German department of the Centre for Eastern Studies Artur Ciechanowicz, the paradox is that both responsible for the preparation of novel Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere and the German Ministry of Labour acknowledged that the phenomenon of abuse is not large. How acute exacerbations of rhetoric towards immigrants on a fairly balanced political scene in Germany? – Multi-CSU chairman Franz Josef Strauss had a rule: in Germany, there can be nothing to the right of his party – explains Ciechanowicz. In the face of growing support and electoral success AFD (eurosceptic party Alternative for Germany), the current chairman of the CSU, Horst Seehofer decided that he must fight hard for voters. And best to do it, taking their passwords. – AFD is a threat to the right-wing conservative party, as CSU and the CDU. Especially for the former, because in the last European elections in Bavaria AFD received 8 perc ent. – Explains prof. Ireneusz Karolewski the Center. Willy Brandt in Wroclaw. Thus, eg. The idea that immigrants used the German language in their homes. Its author is chairman of the CSU, Horst Seehofer. It’s his party is the author of the slogan “Wer betruegt, der fliegt” or “who is cheating, this comes out.”
fearful Germany
The increase in anti-immigrant sentiment is the result of several factors. First, as in the case of the UK and the Netherlands – although less than in those countries extent – Germany frightened to open the local labor market for citizens of Romania and Bulgaria. These fears proved largely unfounded, because in 2013. Oder lived for 267 thousand. Romanians and 147 thousand. Bulgarians. It is hard to talk about the flood of labor migration from southern Europe. It does not help the situation in the Middle East. The escalation of the conflict in Syria and Iraq (combined with the introduction of visa-free regime with the Balkan countries) has led to an increase in the number of applications for asylum in Germany. According to estimates, in 2014. Can be folded up to 200 thousand. people (for comparison: in 2013. was 127 thous., and five years before 28 thousand.). Asylum seekers are dependent on local governments that complain that they do not ge t on this increasingly target more resources.
The federal government announced that restrictions on access to benefits will be designed in such a way, to be in line with the EU’s free movement of persons. Judgment of the Court in Strasbourg in November gave the EU Member States in this case a certain freedom. The judges ruled that officials from Leipzig had the right to refuse to extend the benefit Elisab Dana, a Romanian hostess living in Germany for four years, on the grounds that it had never sought work.
Child Benefit in Germany available to any mother, regardless of income level and is 184 euros per month for the first and second child, 190 euros to 215 euros the third and the fourth and subsequent. Groups family receives more than a thousand euros per month. You are eligible for children under the age of 18 years. People who are in a difficult situation and do not receive unemployment benefits, you may qualify for a care allowance in the amount of 140 euros, provided that they live with the child in the same apartment, and it is not more than 25 years.
The more complex the method of calculation of unemployment benefits. It depends on the average daily earnings of a person over the past year, as well as whether they have children. The law sets the maximum its height – 5.8 thousand. euro in the old Länder and 4.9 thousand. euro in the new.
In Germany, only 195 pending investigations of benefit fraud
United Kingdom changing approach
The leader of the anti-labor immigration policy is the UK government. In the past few weeks, Prime Minister David Cameron has received, however, two serious blows. The first dealt Office for National Statistics, which is a British CSO. Enumerators reported to the news that the number of immigrants arriving on the island is now higher than at the time when Cameron included power. Between mid-2013. And mid-2014. Came Islands 260 thousand. people about 78 thousand. more than a year ago and about 16 thousand. more than in 2010, when the leader of the Conservatives introduced into Downing Street. These figures hit the promise made by the Prime Minister at the end of 2013. That the end of his term of office will reduce the number of immigrants to less than 100 thousand. people a year.
Another blow came from Berlin. Cameron presented in March 2014. Ambitious vision, according to which he could negotiate better conditions for membership for Britain. Contained in them the idea of the amount of migration – the maximum ceiling for the number of people in a given Member State, which may take in a given year, a different member state. This would require the renegotiation of EU treaties. Cameron tenacity in promoting this idea irritated Angela Merkel, who – as reported by the weekly magazine “Der Spiegel” – began to consider even support for the output of London with the EU.
Cameron lowered the tone. In a speech at the end of November, introduced new ideas. The point is is to limit access to social housing for immigrants to four years, to abolish the allowance for a child in a situation where they live permanently outside the UK, introduced the ability to remove immigrants, if they failed to find a job for 6 months, and those who have been convicted, and introduce longer periods entry ban for people who have been caught wyłudzeniach or begging. Immigrants would not have a right to tax exemptions.
The new plans criticized Jean-Claude Juncker. – I am against the treatment of Poles, Romanians and Bulgarians as criminals – said in mid-December, the head of the European Commission.
