Step backwards in granting protection to foreigners – HFHR’s comments on proposed amendment
The Foundation is concerned about the direction of changes laid down in the amendment. Proposals to introduce border procedures and a list of safe third countries and safe countries of origin, the absence of an effective measure of appeal against a denial of legal protection as well as automatic imprisonment of nearly all foreigners applying for international protection in Poland are some of the proposed changes that, according to the HFHR, will lead to a systemic violation of rights of foreigners enshrined in the Geneva Convention of 1951 and international law. “The measures contained in the amendment also raise doubts as to their conformity with EU law”, says Danuta Przywara, HFHR President of the Board.
