How does the COA's reliance on emergency measures, despite consistent overcrowding, contribute to the ongoing safety risks at Ter Apel, and what are the consequences of this approach?

The Ter Apel center, designed for a maximum ten-day stay, often houses asylum seekers for months due to capacity issues. The COA's reliance on makeshift, unsafe emergency shelters like sports halls highlights a failure to address the chronic overcrowding, despite exceeding the 2000-person capacity consistently. This systemic failure to plan for fluctuating asylum applications leads to safety risks and inadequate care for vulnerable individuals.
