The background lies in the Migration Board's decision that persons with a residence permit should no longer be allocated housing.

Spenshult is affected by more than 50 unaccompanied youth who have been granted a residence permit. Another 25 are currently awaiting notification of residence permits for upper secondary school students, they are only affected once they have received the residence permit approved or refused.

Several of those affected have been given new housing on their own, but for about 40 people the housing situation is still uncertain.

Halmstad Municipality now works together with the organization Agape, the Swedish Church, Save the Children and the Red Cross to solve the situation with the people who risk being left without a roof over their heads.

The municipality states that no person will end up under the open sky and that emergency housing is ready for those affected who have nowhere to go.

By the third of February, those affected, who lose their homes at the Migration Agency, must be completely displaced.
