The calculation of total in-donor ODA costs per year is based on two components: the costs that can be directly attributed to individual asylum seekers and the costs are indirectly (lump-sum) attributed to asylum seekers.<br />- Directly attributed: Both the ministry for Justice and Security (which oversees the asylum process) and the ministry for Foreign Affairs (which coordinates ODA-expenditures) agree on a price per asylum seeker per year set for both the COA as for NIDOS. In total, multiple ODA-prices are set for COA (for both regular and unaccompanied minors) and for NIDOS (unaccompanied minors). These prices are based on historical actual costs of COA and Nidos minus the costs for own buildings and administrative costs and are indexed annually. After 2 to 4 years, the costs are calibrated to better fit with actual costs and agreed upon by both ministries. This prices include the following types of expenditures:<br />1) Food, shelter (i.e. temporary<br />accommodation facilities such as reception centres and other facilities) and other essential temporary sustenance provisions such as clothing. (provided by COA/NIDOS)<br />2) Basic assistance to asylum seekers<br />and refugees other than food and<br />shelter, training and health: pocket<br />money. (provided by COA/NIDOS)<br />3) Basic health care and psycho-social<br />support for persons with specific<br />needs. (provided by COA/NIDOS)<br />The prices are multiplied by the eligible days of (12 month rule) of the facilities of COA and NIDOS. The average occupation takes into account what the share is of DAC- and non-DAC asylum seekers.<br />- Indirectly attributed: These expenditures mostly relate to organizations that provide assistance in the asylum procedure, such as translation of documents, legal and administrative counselling, interpretation services and teaching. The indirectly attributed costs are exist out of the following:<br />1) Assistance to asylum procedure: legal counselling (provided by Raad voor de Rechtspraak<br />(RvR))<br />2) Assistance to asylum procedure: Other counselling and support (provided by Dutch Council for Refugees)<br />3) Assistance to asylum procedure: Translation services (provided by IND)<br />4) Education costs (provided by the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science)
