Starting January, Dutch police will run an experimental program in two districts, recording the parentage of offenders and victims of domestic violence. The program will be run for half a year and is intended to check whether there is more violence by non-ethnic Dutch. If deemed successful, it will be extended to the entire country.
Police currently record only the country of birth, and do not record whether it is a case of 2nd or 3rd generation immigrants.
According to Dutch law, a woman who comes to the Netherlands for marriage and is later abused can get a residence permit, divorce her husband and still stay in the Netherlands.
