Uccle Council Debate Over Fedasil Center Relocation Highlights Local Tensions

Uccle municipal council held a tense debate over the upcoming Fedasil center on Beeckman Street, set to open September 15-16, replacing the Samusocial center in Koekelberg. Local residents and opposition councilors expressed mistrust over capacity, consultation, and urban planning. The relocation is part of Belgium's asylum reception policy, with local political friction likely to continue.
