Closed petition reclaim immigrant benefit payments from country of origin

Closed on

benefit payments to immigrants should be reclaimed from their country of origin. As EU law does not allow member countries to refuse movement of labour and expects welfare payments to be made provision should be made to either reclaim from country of origin or from a EU central fund paid for out of existing EU funds
