Timeline
Dec 2022
Emergency shelter opened in the Missiehuis
The former Missiehuis on Tilburgseweg began housing 60 to 70 refugees, managed by the Red Cross.

Council debates extending the shelter
With the planned closure approaching, the council considered prolonging the Missiehuis reception.
Cost
Dutch asylum reception is funded by central government through the COA. At an illustrative benchmark of about €184 per person per night for emergency reception (noodopvang), the 68 people recorded here on 13 August 2025 imply roughly €4.6m per year. This is an order-of-magnitude figure for context only, not a site-specific invoice — emergency reception typically runs around three times the cost of a regular centre.
