More attention to safety during Remembrance Day ceremonies today

There will be gatherings and ceremonies throughout the Netherlands on Saturday in connection with Remembrance Day. At 8 p.m. there will be a two-minute moment of silence to commemorate those who have died during wars and peacekeeping missions since the start of World War II.This year, additional security measures are in place at the National Remembrance Day ceremony held annually on Dam Square in Amsterdam. The measures were put in place both to reduce the risk disruptions, and also to minimize the possibility that protests will interrupt the solemn event.

Netherlands considering several possible sugar taxes on soft drinks

The outgoing Cabinet has developed five possible variants of a sugar tax that can be levied on non-alcoholic soft drinks. The aim is to make drinks with little or no sugar cheaper, like diet sodas and oat milk. Other drinks with a great deal of sugar, like Red Bull, would become more expensive.This should help in the fight against obesity, the Cabinet believes. It will be up to the Tweede Kamer, the lower house of Parliament, to choose from those variants, an adapted version, or to reject them outright.

Some 30,600 homeless adults in Nehterlands last year; Very worrying, State Sec says

Still, due to uncertainty margins, it is too early to speak of an increase, Statistics Netherlands (CBS) reported. “Since 2018, the number of homeless people between 18 and 65 continually declined,” said CBS researcher Tanja Traag. “You can at least say that decline has now stopped or that the number of homeless people has stabilized.”
