Migrant groups hit back at new limits on cash benefits for asylum seekers
MIGRANT rights groups in Germany hit back today at new limits on cash benefit payments for asylum-seekers.
The new rule, which was passed by the German parliament last month, calls for asylum-seekers to receive their benefits on a card for use at local shops and to pay for services.
They will only be able to withdraw limited amounts of cash and won’t be able to transfer money outside Germany.
