The federal government is creating a legal framework allowing, subject to the prior authorisation of an investigating judge, a home visit to be carried out with a view to enforcing a return decision. This measure may only be considered if the cumulative conditions are met: 1° there are reasonable grounds to consider that the foreign national poses a danger to public order or national security; 2° the foreign national is staying illegally and is subject to a return decision; 3° the foreign national is not cooperating with the enforcement of that decision; 4° there are reasonable grounds to believe that he or she is at their place of residence; 5° it must be a last resort, meaning that no other less intrusive measure can be effectively applied; 6° the authorisation is proportionate.
