Bill fights truck climbing also outside port area

This Tuesday morning, Flemish parliamentarian Maaike De Vreese and MPs Theo Francken, Christophe D’Haese and Darya Safai presented a bill to more severely punish truck break-ins even outside port areas. “Still far too many transit migrants are venturing across to Britain illegally,” said the N-VA quartet. “In West Flanders alone, police forces are encountering an average of 90 illegal transit migrants every week this year. The cost of this illegal transmigration to the economy is enormous. In Zeebrugge, 35% of companies speak of damage between 100,000 and more than 3 million euros.”
