Netherlands: PVV proposes to count 3rd generation immigrants as immigrants
Via Trouw (Dutch):
The PVV party asked Piet Hein Donner, the Dutch minister of internal affairs, to consider grandchildren of immigrants as immigrants as well. PPV parliamentarian Joram van Klaveren says this is necessary in order to follow up on the progress of their integration. "Non-Western immigrants are still overrepresented in the crime statistics. Soon we won't see that anymore, since they'll be considred ethnic Dutch."
Today children are considered 'ethnic Dutch' if both parents were born in the Netherlands. The PVV says that 3rd generation immigrants cause specific problems in society and should be followed up on. Currently 80% of 3rd generation immigrants are younger than ten.
