Bill: Immigration and refugee Policy
Details
Submitted by[?]: Hobrazian Peoples Party
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: March 2348
Description[?]:
Article 1:The HPP see a need to accept regulation on immigration, so we allow the educated personel we need, to immigrate before accepting random immigration. When shortfall on personel in certain sectors exist, we should allow educated personel matching the need of our country. When no hobrazian qualifies for a job one of the most qualified persons seaking immigration should be allowed to immigrate into the country. This will aid integration as the most important factor for a succesfull integration is having a job. It should also be allowed for companies to headhunt educated personel from a foreign country to work in hobrazia if the headhunted persons seeks immigration and integration in hobrazia. example: when we need engineers we should accept immigration of such in front of other immigrants. Article 2: The HPP's policy towards refugees is that they eventually will wanna go back to their homecountry. Therefore it is important that refugees will be helped as close to their homecountries as possible. Therefore the HPP don't se the sense in encouraging refugees to pay loads of money on the black market to travel far away from their origin. So let's rather help them in their homecountry or in neighbouring countries, when disaster or war strife. It also seems stupid to give integration aid to refugees as they have no wish to stay in our nation. If they do so they should apply for immigrant status and be treated after these laws. As refugee noone should recieve integration aid. Article 3: As we understand, it is the privilege for every nation to be lord in its own house. It is also the decision of all nations whether they will aid other nations if asked or if needed. We have and always have had the policy that noone should interfere with our national decision other than our parliament and the population of Hobrazia. Therefore we propose this bill to stop our nation from interfering with other nations. Especially if they are ruled by incompetent leaders elected by a ignorant people. It is not the responsible of our nation to take care of other nations failede policy. If the parliament decides, further aid can be given, but this should be decided on a case by case basis and furthermore demand a simple majority. |
