Immigration Crisis | DHA Minister Dr Leon Schreiber on withdrawn asylum directive

The Department of Home Affairs has withdrawn a directive on the intake of asylum applications, citing overwhelmed refugee reception offices, risks to officials, and concerns over public safety. The directive was issued following a Constitutional Court judgment in July. The department says it will now develop a new operational approach to comply with the court order.
