Vulnerable asylum seekers, such as threatened gays or Christians, may temporarily be placed in separate sections of reception centers or be received elsewhere if necessary, State Secretary for Security and Justice Klaas Dijkhoff recently decided. The state secretary stressed this was meant as a custom solution. Separate reception of "certain categories" is not necessary, because this would send the wrong signal and not match the way society works in the Netherlands, Dijkhoff said. With this, the state secretary puts the related request from Parliament aside.
