The council for integration Representation of interests, information, support and assistance for people with migratory background in Jülich

In a municipality where at least 2,000 foreigners have their main residence, a council for integration must be formed if at least 200 persons entitled to vote according to § 27 section 3 sentence 1 no. 1 GO NRW (Municipal Code NRW) apply for it. This happened and thus, the council for integration was elected on 7th February 2010.
The council for integration of Jülich consists of 18 members entitled to vote.
12 members were elected directly and the other 6 members were appointed from among the city council. Thus, the council for integration is closely intermeshed with the local politics.
