Mr. Speaker, colleagues, last month, before the House voted on it, we extracted two files from the proposal for naturalization laws. This time things are different. However, the incident is not new. In 2002, 2004 and 2005 we also experienced similar situations.
The present proposal aims to change the naturalization laws by removing a name that was approved here by the House last month. The problem is not only that this is an approved document, but also that the document was already signed by the King and now is waiting with him in the slide for publication in the Belgian Staatsblad.
Those laws, which are the naturalizations concerned, have not yet been published, we owe – Mr. President, honour who ought to be honored – the service Naturalizations, which shows the necessary caution and imposes a kind of waiting period, before going to publication.
No one will contradict me, however, if I insist that we must, all together, bring out witches in order to amend the naturalization laws of 9 May 2008 by publishing those laws and by publishing the present bill, after it will be approved later, at the same time.
In other words, the person concerned receives the Belgian nationality, which is subsequently removed immediately.
Mr. Speaker, colleagues, the plenary session is not the place to talk about the content of the file, although a number of comments may be attached to the file. Our group will make them during the new research we will do in the Committee on Naturalizations.
However, the plenary session is the place to talk about the acquisition of nationality. To completely exclude such incidents, as they have occurred here in Parliament, can of course never be. I am fully aware of this. Limiting them to the extreme minimum, however, can be. After all, I fear that the conscious incident is only a tip of the iceberg.
The question of how many of the acquisitions of nationality we are late should be our primary concern. Until now, however, I have concluded that this problem is not being resolved. Our group has already prepared its proposals in this regard.
