Separating family members can have devastating consequences on their wellbeing and ability to rebuild their lives. This is true for everybody, but especially so for people who have fled persecution or serious harm and have lost family during forced displacement and their flight from danger. For beneficiaries of international protection, family separation can affect their ability to engage in many aspects of the integration process, from education and employment to putting down roots, and harm their physical and emotional health. Family reunification is therefore a fundamental aspect of bringing normality to the lives of such people. While European Union law ensures refugees and holders of subsidiary protection – the two types of beneficiaries of international protection – equal treatment in most areas, differences persist regarding family reunification under the Family Reunification Directive, among other things. After 2015, most EU Member States witnessed a significant increase in the number of asylum-seekers arriving in their territory, with a parallel increase in the number of beneficiaries of international protection seeking reunification with their families. To establish some form of control over this unprecedented flow of people, Member States shifted away from awarding refugee status towards granting subsidiary protection, thus restricting the possibility for beneficiaries to reunite with their families. In March 2025, certain EU countries announced restrictions on the right to family reunification for migrants. According to many legal experts, beneficiaries of subsidiary protection face stricter requirements regarding family reunification than refugees, which disregards the particular circumstances related to their forced displacement and the corresponding difficulties they are likely to face in meeting these stricter requirements.

People's Alliance for Reform (PAR) leader Lim Tean has expressed his unhappiness over the telecast General Election roundtable he participated in. The roundtable, which took place on Sunday (April 27) evening, saw Chee Hong Tat from the incumbent People's Action Party (PAP) trade verbal blows with Michael Thng from the Workers' Party (WP), Ravi Philemon from Red Dot United (RDU), Stephanie Tan from the Progress Singapore Party (PSP) and Lim. In a Facebook post on Monday, Lim stated that he's «extremely disappointed and angry» at the roundtable's «very unfair» format. In particular, he pointed out that the four opposition parties had to share half the total time while PAP was given the remaining half. «That meant the opposition parties were given only one minute each to make their case!» Lim exclaimed. «This was grossly inadequate compared to the four minutes Chee Hong Tat had for his response to each question.» All participants ought to be given equal response time to maintain fairness, Lim argued.
