Government published its action plan on asylum policy

On Tuesday 8 December, the Government published its action plan on asylum policies. Finland's aim is to stem in the short term the uncontrolled influx of asylum seekers into the country, to contain asylum costs and to integrate efficiently those who have been granted asylum. Finland will also make the asylum and return processes more effective and contribute to the management of the EU's external borders.
