At a meeting of ministers responsible for immigration matters in Thessaloniki on 6 May, the Dutch Secretary of State Mr Aad Kosto has announced his intention to send employers to jail for employing "illegal aliens." Mr Kosto feels fines are too easily booked as corporate losses and have little deterrent effect. He stated that "As long as you tolerate illegals, you undermine the rule of law and in fact allow a Third World economy in your own country."
