Details of HS|Due to the security of the eastern border, the law prepared in the Ministry of the Interior will be delayed again. The Chancellor of Justice has made comments on the presentation since the beginning of the week.
Prime minister Petteri Orpo (kok) today tells the parliamentary groups about the last twists and turns of the so-called eastern border conversion law, which has been in preparation for a long time in the Ministry of the Interior.

Orpo is again trying to get as many MPs and parliamentary groups as possible to support the conversion law.
The Prime Minister will talk about the discussions on the conversion law around 1:45 p.m. HS shows the live broadcast of Ilta-Sanomie’s ISTV.
If the law ever goes to the parliament, it requires a five-sixths majority of the parliament as an urgent exception law, i.e. the votes of the governing parties are not enough for its passage. Among other things Left Alliance has criticized the bill.
Orphaned there is still no ready government proposal to be presented to the parliament.
According to HS’s information, attempts were made again to get the so-called conversion law ready for Thursday’s session of the Government Council, but according to several sources, the law is still not ready to be taken to the government for a decision.
This week, the bill has been under consideration by the chancellor of justice, who oversees the legality of the government’s actions. According to HS’s information, the Chancellor of Justice has submitted amendments to the bill during the beginning of the week.
From the right called it is a law to combat instrumentalized immigration.
The law is in a hurry, because it is wanted to enter into force as a matter of urgency already before the parliament’s summer break.
The government is afraid that when the weather improves, Russia will allow asylum seekers to the land border in order to cause confusion in Finland. For now this has not happenedalthough the snow has melted from the southern parts of the border.
Law would be an exceptional law, which aims to prevent the entry of asylum seekers already at the border and at the same time significantly limit the reception of applications.
It has been very difficult to write the law in such a way that it does not blatantly contradict the constitution, several other Finnish laws and international human rights treaties.
The draft law received a lot of criticism during the opinion round also because in the proposal, the legal of the border guards position was unclear. During the spring, the duties and responsibilities of the border guards have been clarified in the bill.
Officials of the Border Guard criticized in the statement round in his statement that the bill would drive the border guards to act contrary to their official duties.
