C proposes suggestions for a 'reasonable' migration policy
The Center Party in Sweden proposes reforms to migration policies to prevent the expulsion of young adults from families with residency permits.
The Center Party (C) in Sweden is advocating for the reintroduction of regulations that allow individuals to remain in Sweden due to particularly compelling reasons, especially focusing on children who have grown up in the country with parents holding residency permits. This proposal aims to prevent the expulsion of teenagers once they turn 18, positioning it as an effective measure to address the issue of teenage deportations. Niels Paarup-Petersen, the party's spokesperson for migration policy, suggests that this 'ventil' could provide a quicker solution to a pressing problem in the nation.
In addition to preventing teenage deportations, the Center Party has recommended that children born in Sweden to parents with residency permits should have the right to apply for their own residency status. Furthermore, they are proposing a transitional rule for individuals whose asylum applications have been denied but who have transitioned to obtain work permits, allowing them to renew their permits without leaving Sweden. These measures reflect the party's ongoing commitment to creating a manageable and fair migration policy that considers the complexities of individuals' circumstances.
C Party leader Elisabeth Thand Ringqvist expressed that the party aims for a migration policy that is both restrained and reasonable, highlighting the need for such reforms amidst growing concerns over migration issues in Sweden. The proposals illustrate an effort to balance humanitarian considerations with practical immigration management, focusing on family unity and stability for children in the country.
