Dutch Upper Chamber puts pressure on State Secretary

The Dutch Upper Chamber wants State Secretary Halbe Zijlstra to hurry up with his measures which should avoid part-time students to be victim of the fines of the new law.
Part-timers will be victims
Part-time students are almost certain to study longer than the normal number of years. They would be the victims of the new law, without being able to do something about it. Although Zijlsta still has six months to come with a measure to avoid this, the Upper Chamber thinks he should hurry up. ‘We want to know what the State Secretary is going to do about it’, Upper Chamber member Ganzevoort says. ‘There is a lot of commotion amongst students. People want to know what they’re up to.’
