At a time when France’s negligence in failing to protect its children has been criticised[1],owing to the proliferation of prostitution, drug trafficking and Islamism in homes for minors, the necessary resources to curb these scourges are not being provided by the state and local authorities.

The French authorities, however, are allocating ever more human and financial resources to opening reception and support centres for unaccompanied foreigners who claim to be minors, such as the recently established facilities in Dol-de-Bretagne, in Ille-et-Vilaine[2].

  • 1.Is the Commission making a contribution towards the funding of these centres for unaccompanied foreign ‘minors’?
  • 2.If so, how much EU funding is being provided?
  • 3.What would the Commission do to ensure that these alleged foreign minors are returned to their home countries as quickly as possible?
