Suspicion and repression of migrants (fr, it, pt) [machine
translation]
If the asylum reform, adopted in December 2014, fulfilled the duty of transposition of
European directives, the draft new Code of entry and residence of foreigners and asylum,
presented to the Council of Ministers of 23 July, is dictated by the will of the
government of Holland continue and expand the hunt for immigrant policy-es. ---- The new
Ceseda establishes a double-edged multi card. Indeed, it is not a stepping stone for the
residence card: its sole purpose is to relieve prefectures. The first title remains the
temporary residence permit for one year and the conditions of issue do not change. At
renewal, if the applicant has not changed, it will be assigned a multi card of four years,
with the same words as the first (employee, student...).
But all the multiyear cards do not have a four-year term. Exceptions are numerous:
students (length of years of study), parents of French children or spouses of French
(still suspected of fraud, two years) patients (term care), etc. And victims of human
trafficking are completely excluded. In case of change of status, it will go through the
one-year card before a new multi-year card. The prefecture will continuously monitor the
conditions of residency rights by questioning various administrations or public or private
companies and take the title at any time.
Increase the effectiveness of deportation
House arrest is widespread, a thousand miles from any humanist alternative consideration
in the detention center, but to allow alternate retention and assignment until the day of
the eviction. And pile coercive measures: shortening of voluntary departure time following
an obligation to leave French territory (OQTF), automatically sending inadmissibility of
years for non-starting on the date fixed, shortening appeal deadlines, creating a specific
OQTF failed asylum seekers and finally a 'first' in Europe: the traffic ban on French
territory for citizens of the European Union (for Roma , of course).
Dodging the provisions of the European Convention and European law, the bill maintains the
overseas territories in a space of infradroit. A still absent right of airport waiting
areas or "backpack" where nothing changes. Nothing about foreign minors, isolated or not,
on the status of the parents of sick children (without right to work), the sick, injured
workers, workers without papers, residence permit or regularization of right.
No desire to break, so with the policy of the last thirty years that this government,
supposedly left, endorses, riding a pervasive racism and further strengthening of fortress
Europe. A representative group of associations and trade union structures of foreign
rights (including Fasti, Gisti, Cimade, League of Human Rights, the Union of
Magistrates...) have already denounced the bill and presented a joint analysis February
11, in Paris. To us to bounce back to the government and gain new rights. And there are
only a few months...
