Listhaug use their own experiences to justify controversial child: Has … – Dagbladet.no

(Dagbladet): In an NRK chronicle defended immigration minister Sylvi Listhaug why the government would introduce a new law for asylum children (read about the proposal in the factbox). The citation wrote Listhaug that “children largely forced to flee.”

She has since been harvested for the way she used research from Fafo and the University to justify the claim.

But Listhaug has pointed out that she also received the statement confirmed on their own. This revolves around visits to two reception centers.

In NRK chronicle writes Listhaug: “I myself in conversation with employees of institutions for unaccompanied minors have confirmed that there are many examples of children stated that they are in Norway even if they do not want it myself. “

Dagbladet asked Listhaug how many employees Listhaug have spoken on the reception and how many children the staff thought this applied?

– I have raised this at reception centers for unaccompanied minors both in Ålesund and Stjordal. I verified that it does occur, but obviously not a number. There I asked for that matter nor whether writes Listhaug in an email to Dagbladet.

– I have not considered it essential FAFO reviews, which interviewed only 30 children and young people but mentions their research in the article. The majority of kids report that it was not their decision to travel, and most often it was the family who decided this. Then one must ask what choice these children really have? Printer immigration minister.

New Fafo criticism today

Listhaug pointed to a Fafo survey when she wrote that “children largely forced to flee.” It was that one of the 30 children had said that they traveled voluntarily in the study.

– This brings both research and policy into disrepute if not citing research correctly, says Anne Britt Djuve, Research Director at Fafo, to Dagbladet.

was first referred to in Aftenposten. When Listhaug confronted researcher criticism on political quarters this morning, she did not even criticism.

– The report shows that one of the 30 children who have been interviewed have been sent against their will. When we know that there were over 5,000 children who came to Norway last year, so there is great reason to believe that among them are many who have had to travel against their will, said Listhaug political quarters today.

– It’s in the report pointed out that one of 30 children traveled against her will, and when you think of when that 5,000 children came, so it is quite clear that there is more than one child in Norway is here against her will, she repeated later.

Fafo says today that it is not possible to see the number by one of 30 children up to the 5000 that came in last year.

– It is nonsense. You can not walk up the century for the 30 is not a representative sample. It’s a completely pointless exercise to walk up for a qualitative study. There may be more, or it could be less. This not our study grounds to believe anything about, says the chief scientist at Fafo.

– Do not multiplied

Listhaug match that would be outstanding if Fafo “in its selection of these 30 hit the one who has come to Norway against their will.”

– I have not multiplied number, but shown to that there is great reason to believe that it is also among the thousands of children that have come before, including the 5000 last year, is reason to believe that more children are sent against their will, writes immigration minister.

– Whatever research is not essential for why we promote the proposal, but the fact that children are sent, willingly or against their will, into the hands of traffickers where they may be exposed to violence, abuse and worst case being killed on their way to Norway and Europe, writes Listhaug.
