UNHCR’s observations to the Danish government’s law proposal on the possibility to transfer asylum-seekers to asylum processing and accommodation in third countries.
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, has submitted our observations to the Danish government’s law proposal on transfer of asylum-seekers to asylum processing and accommodation in third countries.
The law proposal is introducing a new model, after which Denmark will no longer be carrying out the processing of an asylum-seekers request for asylum unless Denmark’s international obligations require processing in Denmark. At the same time, the law proposal introduces a new model for processing and access to complaints as well as the possibility for detention.
The implementation of the law is relying on an agreement with a third country.
UNHCR’s observations are available here.
