Frank van Goole, from Otto Workforce agency specializing in workers from Central and Eastern Europe, told the committee that the Dutch do not have to think about the Netherlands as a haven.

Good to figure out the problem earlier so that the Government can have time to cope with it.

Whenever we try to work against the nature we stuck in similar problems. Avoiding children till the age of 38 and focusing on less kids is the major key of this problem.
