France says no to mass legalisation of undocumented immigrants
Last updated at 16:53pm on 21st May 2007

New French president Nicolas Sarkozy's government will be taking a 'pragmatic' line on immigration, it says.

France's minister of immigration and national identity, a new ministry created by President Nicolas Sarkozy, has ruled out legalizing undocumented immigrants en masse.

The new ministry said today that government policy would be dictated by firmness and pragmatism.

"We have to put aside massive legalization. It doesn't work and it penalizes, even immigrants," Brice Hortefeux said on Europe 1 radio.

Policy, he said, would be guided by "firmness and humanism" with "lots of pragmatism."

He also said he planned to adhere to the policy of deporting illegal immigrants from France. The number of deportees was expected to reach some 25,000 this year, and Hortefeux said he would ensure that figure is reached.

Hortefeux also said he would not put into question a long-standing policy of "family grouping," by which immigrants in France can bring their families here.

However, he indicated, as Sarkozy had, that modifications may be made in order to ensure that those who join other family members in France can be integrated.

"It must be carried out in respect for the dignity of those who want to come and (in a way) that favors their integration," he said.

Sarkozy had said he wants to ensure that those who join families in France can speak French and that family members receiving them can support the newcomers.

This has to be a huge DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why didn't they make sure of this before? Why would they let people in who didn't speak the language and had no way to support themselves? Unless the gov. just had to much money and didn't know what else to do with it except spend in on welfair/dole.
