beggars settlements have become, for many, consider the Stockholm opposition Vice Mayor Anna König Jerlmyr (M).
Now, she urges government to change the law so that the stewards shall be entitled to evict EU migrants from human settlements.
– It is possible to rent sleeps in a hostel for 200 crowns night, she said.
In one year the number of nest sites used by EU migrants in Stockholm increased from 17 to 44. König Jerlmyr do not want to ban begging, but rather making sure that the settlements issue. The move was first made in an interview in Dagens Nyheter.
She wants to get beggars to stop living in established camps, on sidewalks and playgrounds, as she believes that the problems of littering are great.
– We have a good order types and order of the Charter basically , prohibiting such campsites from being established. We have big problems now around Stockholm, as the use of playgrounds as toilets, she says to Aftonbladet.
Warns of shacks
At present only police the power to carry out evictions by force. Anna König Jerlmyr now calling on the government to review the legislation.
– Municipalities should be given the opportunity to hire security guards so that we may be able to maintain the ordinance available, which we can not today.
She warns that the capital should get permanent shacks.
– And where do nothing of the red-green new government in Stockholm, which effectively stopped evictions since last fall.
Where should I direct them as to evict?
– I think it’s important that we allow for temporary accommodation places, but it’s just temporary. We opened example, two shelters for the group last Parliament.
Then we need to have a discussion with human quarks how the long-term plan looks like. We have a regulated free movement within the EU based on that you should support themselves. And if you have no such opportunities is also the option that after three months to go home.
Accommodation two days
Many people today go the home after three months, and then returned .
– We have not anything against begging as such and also sees that it is good for municipalities grant temporary residence places. And I think we have to work to find an alternative to begging as a livelihood. But the settlements is a real problem today. And when you stop evicting, we see how the sites are emerging and growing.
Does the municipality to establish accommodations to all who will?
– Right now we have between 500-1000 Begging in Stockholm, and I think unreported cases is high. It becomes difficult to provide accommodation places for all. One must connect it to a temporary site, a few days, in connection with eviction.
“Can stay in hostels”
What should the rest do, which may not be dwelling places?
– You can take it in stages, that all may offer temporary accommodation for a few days before discussing how to have the opportunity to support themselves, and do not see it, you can not stay in Sweden.
And if they nevertheless want to stay in the three months they are entitled to?
– Then you inform about the possibility of arrange accommodations. It is possible to rent a sleeping at a hostel for 200 crowns night.
The government’s national hemöshetssamordnare told the Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet last year that NGOs estimate that the beggar receives about 2000 dollars a month – that is, below 70 per day.
– I think it looks a little different, I dare not go into exactly how much you earn or not. But would we allow people to stay in these settlements, sleeping on the streets or in playgrounds it does not address the basic problem. We need to be more clear that we have a prohibition to settle and camp on the streets, and we need to inform EU citizens.
“Not Sustainable”
Those who are not offered accommodation places, nor afford hostels, what should they do?
– We need to disseminate information that you are able to stay in Sweden if they can support themselves himself. So looks EU legislation out.
So they be evicted from the country?
– No, we have no right to do. One must take a call with the group, tell and inform about how the framework looks.
König Jerlmyr takes up the parallel gotta work for solutions in Romania. Together with the Swedish Church has last alliance management for the city of Stockholm started a post office account for the collection to buy land, build schools and provide shorter vocational courses.
– It is very vulnerable and poor people, and many locals feel for them. But it is also not sustainable as we have it today.
The rödgrönrosa parties: S, MP, V and FI, a majority in the city of Stockholm and has since last fall decided in principle that “evictions should avoided as far as possible “. At evictions options will be offered and all the action will take place.
Ask: “Must be taken seriously”
Beatrice Ask, M’s right political spokesperson, says of today’s gambit from König Jelrmyr:
– It is important that local authorities can take responsibility for order and security. The M in Stockholm point to the shortcomings in the practical means to act against settlements in public places, parks and green spaces. The problem must be taken seriously and the government should investigate how local government efforts to maintain order Charter and other rules should be facilitated.
