Bilaterale III: Kommission will Abgabe bei zu hoher Zuwanderung
Die Staatspolitische Kommission des Ständerates will die Schutzklausel der Bilateralen III mit einer Zuwanderungsabgabe ergänzen.
The State Policy Commission of the Council intends to complement the protection clause of Bilateral III with a migration fee. The State Policy Commission (SPK-S) has concluded the discussion on amendments to the Foreigners and Integration Act (AIG) as part of the "Stabilisation and Development of Switzerland-EU Relations (Bilateral III)" project.
The SPK-S generally supports implementing Bilateral III in foreign law but aims to supplement the planned protection clause. According to the commission, a migration fee could be levied upon activation of the clause, with employers responsible for the payments. The revenue is intended to benefit the population. The Federal Council should annually review whether there are severe economic or social problems that necessitate protective measures.
The commission also aims to strengthen security checks. For EU nationals, potential threats to public safety, order, or health should be examined, while a criminal record extract from the home country should be requested for non-EU nationals.
