Question 28108 — lieux de privation de liberté

France · National Assembly · 3 July 2020

Mme Claire O'Petit attire l'attention de M. le ministre de l'intérieur sur la situation des personnes retenues dans les centres de rétention administrative (CRA). Selon l'ordonnance du juge des référés du Conseil d'État rendue le 27 mars 2020 (CE, ord., 27 mars 2020, req. n° 439720), « il résulte de l'instruction que le nombre de personnes retenues dans les centres de rétention administrative a diminué dans des proportions très importantes depuis que l'épidémie de covid-19 a atteint la France. Le nombre des personnes nouvellement placées en rétention s'est, de même, très substantiellement réduit et devrait être marginal dans la période à venir. Alors que les 26 centres de rétention ont une capacité d'accueil totale d'un peu plus de 1 800 places, ils ne comptaient ainsi que de l'ordre de 350 personnes retenues à la fin de la semaine du 16 mars 2020 et seulement 152 personnes à la date du 26 mars 2020. » D'autre part, il résulte de l'article L. 554-1 du code de l'entrée et du séjour des étrangers et du droit d'asile « qu'ils ne peuvent être placés ou maintenus en rétention que pour le temps strictement nécessaire à leur départ ». Elle lui demande donc, à la date à laquelle cette réponse sera donnée, de lui fournir les informations en sa possession concernant ces 152 personnes, à savoir la proportion de personnes qui a fait l'objet d'une mesure effective d'éloignement du territoire, qui a bénéficié de l'élargissement par le juge des libertés et de la détention et qui demeure dans un CRA.

Hong Kong Safe Harbor Act

United States · United States Congress · 30 June 2020

Hong Kong Safe Harbor Act This bill designates certain Hong Kong residents with priority status for refugee consideration and contains other related provisions. An individual and certain family members shall have such priority status if the individual (1) is a Hong Kong resident who suffered persecution or has a well-founded fear of persecution as a result of peaceful political activity; or (2) has been formally charged, detained, or convicted for certain peaceful actions. An individual receiving refugee status under this bill shall not be counted against various numerical limitations. When determining whether an individual shall be admitted as a refugee under this bill, an individual whose citizenship, nationality, or residency was revoked for submitting a nonfrivolous application for a U.S. immigration benefit shall be considered to have suffered persecution on account of political opinion. The general presumption that an alien is seeking immigrant status shall not apply to certain Hong Kong residents seeking asylum into the United States. (Typically, an alien seeking admission as a nonimmigrant must establish that the alien does not intend to immigrate to the United States.) This exception to the presumption shall apply to certain individuals involved in the 2019 and 2020 protests against China's encroachment into Hong Kong's autonomy (Hong Kong is a part of China but has a separate legal and economic system). An individual from Hong Kong may not be denied admission into the United States if the primary reason for the denial is a politically motivated government action against the individual's involvement in protests.
