The Chamber of Deputies has given final approval to the decree governing aided voluntary repatriations, or the procedures by which foreigners choose to return to their country of origin. The agreed wording resolves a fiercely discussed question in recent weeks: who pays for legal representation throughout these procedures? The clause modifies an initial center-right proposal that included a set €615 charge for lawyers. The final version instead stipulates that the state will compensate the appointed professional who aids the foreign citizen in submitting the application. To avoid waste or anomalies, the decree establishes a specific rule: payment to the legal representative will be made only once the operation is completed, rather than automatically. This guarantees financial assistance to those who aid migrants in their return journey, provided that the process is executed correctly.
