Faced with this situation, several political figures, including Theo Francken (N-VA) or Georges-Louis Bouchez (MR), wanted the authorization of home visits, which would allow entry into the homes or places of residence of people in illegal stay in Belgium. Initiated in 2018 by Koen Geens (CD&V), this controversial bill made a lot of noise and was strongly criticized by many parties, including those of the majority at the time and in particular the MR.

Following recent events, will this project finally come to fruition? In any case, it remains a sensitive subject. And we could see it during a sequence that went viral on social networks. Questioned during Wednesday’s debates by a journalist, Denis Ducarme showed a certain annoyance.

”Sir, do you accept home visits?” a VRT journalist asked him in the corridors. “Why are you asking me this question?”, the liberal politician wonders. To which the journalist retorts: “Because Koen Geens (the former Minister of Justice who wanted to launch the project, Editor’s note) referred to the Michel government, specifying that it was a very difficult question at the time” . Denis Ducarme will then cut it short: “Koen Geens indicates what he wants. Please allow me, I would like to follow the commission”.
