The measure aims to decongestion inland structures and, according to Notis Mitarakis, with the implementation of the measure will empty about 1.000 positions in structures, hotels and apartments.

There is a special provision for unaccompanied minors, for whom the above deadlines start from adulthood.

Also, a decision by the Minister of Immigration & Asylum mentions specific categories of beneficiaries for which the aid or the departure deadline from the hot spots is extended, such as those suffering from serious illness.
