Departure center (also: Departure mechanism, collecting accommodation, national accommodation) is an authority term for a camp, into which refugees with valid residence status are instructed, in order to induce it to faster leaving of the Federal Republic. The departure mechanism is an important component of a feedback concept, with which is tried to improve the departure readiness if the official and judicial procedure is final and is because of excluded a lodging right thus from law. It aims off to take full advantage of all legal possibilities of the behavior influence. Departure centers represent a new component in the complex of national refugee politics and seem as model country widely to become generally accepted at present. The developments of the policy are at present however still non-uniform in Germany and therefore this term, depending upon Land of the Federal Republic, by authorities and are critic inside differently used.

Legal bases

The Zuwanderungsgesetz from 30 July 2004 plans the mechanism of departure mechanisms expressly.

After "§ 61 (2): "“the countries can create departure mechanisms for enforceable leave the country-requiring foreigners. In the departure mechanisms"… the accessibility for authorities and courts as well as the execution of the departure are to become secured"”

Conversion

Departure centers are accommodation forms for refugees and Migranten, who cannot be pushed away due to missing papers. They are central accommodated there to affect advisory with the goal, them until they leave the country "“voluntarily"”, when illegal ones can be submerged or pushed away, because a potential country of origin confirms that it acts with the respective person over eine/n of this country.

To "“departure centers"” the readiness is to be promoted by refugees to participate in their departure and/or deportation by a "“return-oriented consultation and support"”. In these "“departure centers"” land humans, to who is subordinated to mask their origin and not participate in the passport procurement. They live there under conditions, receive nothing except three meals on the day. All other social achievements, in particular the poor pocket money from monthly 40, - euro after asylum-seeker achievement law, are void completely. The passengers are subject to a regular obligation to register, by security agencies are continual controlled and by woman employees of the foreigner authorities cross-examined, i.e. under ((psychological (according to critics)) Pressure set to leave Germany. First experiences of the authorities prove that with the taken up persons clear achievement restrictions show up and the exclusion of a beginning of work as well as consciousness developing during a gradual process shift humans over the hopelessness of its life perspective in Germany into a certain tendency of hope and disorientation. Further by the authorities one formulates, when which they regard this accommodation form:

"“Even if so far the national accommodation attained in terms of figures still no great importance, can nevertheless is stated that the presence of such a mechanism in the system between the only argument pushing away detention and last-finite surrender, existing so far, closed an important gap."”

(see: Dietmar Martini Emden, director/conductor of the office for affairs of foreigner and the Clearingstelle Rhineland-Palatinate for flight deportation and passport procurement during the city administration Trier - problem definition and intention of the model test of a national accommodation for departure-requiring in Rhineland-Palatinate) the exercised pressure led according to critics, only in few cases to the actual departure. This official measure becomes from them as if Abschiebehaft light designation.

Several model projects in Germany followed end of the nineties. Thus 1998 a departure center in (North Rhine-Westphalia) developed that however in the following year again one closed. Some problems had preceded the locking, which obtain a vague impression from the there dominant climate: apart from the suicide of a refugee it came to personal threats against officials, excesses as well as the threat to down-burn the mechanism completely. In the same year similar mechanisms in Braunschweig and Oldenburg in Lower Saxony were established nevertheless, one year later followed Ingelheim in Rhineland-Palatinate.
