The Dutch Advisory Committee on Migration Affairs (Adviescommissie voor Vreemdelingenzaken, ACVZ) is an independent committee that advises the Dutch Government and Parliament on migration issues. The committee reports on migration policy and legal issues.
The Government is legally obliged to inform Parliament of its point of view on the advisory reports within three months. The ACVZ reports also on proposals to amend the Dutch Aliens Act. These reports are presented to the Government and to Parliament. The reports are made public.
