NCFCA Policy Debate: Reception Capacity Benchmarks (NEG)

The affirmative case argues that EU countries have are insufficiently prepared to provide adequate necessities to migrants arriving on their shores, and mandates that the EU should establish minimum reception capacity standards countries must meet.
There are far fewer migrants arriving in Europe and the EU is finding other solutions to care for them. Additionally, there are several disadvantages to the AFF plan.  Their plan requires countries to increase their reception capacity which will cost them money.  Additionally, this plan directly opposes many countries current stance toward immigration and reception capacity. Countries such as Italy are even reducing their reception capacity. Requiring them to change their policies could cause backlash and instability throughout the EU.
