Isn’t it a bit premature to take such a position in anticipation of the distribution law? No, says the mayor. By indicating all his wishes and limits now, he has a starting point when the COA (Central Agency for the Reception of Asylum Seekers) comes knocking on his door. “We are also in constant consultation with the province, which distributes the refugees.” Finally, alderman Kok acknowledges that the possible arrival of the distribution law motivates him to share his asylum plans at the moment.
