The French government will propose a new immigration law next year that will, among other things, extend the period during which undocumented - and potentially “dangerous” - migrants can be held in pre-trial detention. This was announced on Sunday by officials.
Press Secretary Maude Brejon, who announced these plans on BFMTV, emphasized that the French government insists on adopting a new immigration law by early 2025.
According to Brejon, the new bill will include measures to increase the period of detention for illegal migrants who pose a threat from 90 to 210 days.
