Johan Mostertman, with whom she worked closely, can still see exactly how Hollander addressed the House of Representatives in 2018. Without a trace of doubt and with enormous involvement, she warned of possible aggression. ‘I hope you will never experience it, but I can very well imagine that if your children are knowingly threatened, you as father and mother say: fall over.’

– A large part of the opposition has lost confidence in Prime Minister Mark Rutte. But coalition parties VVD, D66, ChristenUnie and CDA closed ranks and supported the prime minister, despite their sometimes visible discomfort about the prime minister’s attitude.
– Prime Minister Rutte makes it clear from the start that he does not want to resign. “I want to be part of the way forward. That is my absolute ambition’. He acknowledged that mistakes were made, but says the intentions have always been good.
– The opposition in particular continued to address and confront the prime minister with the report of the committee of inquiry: the interests of Groningen have been structurally ignored, the disastrous consequences were the result of active political choices and not the result of mistakes.
– According to the State Secretary, the scheme whereby damage up to 40,000 euros is compensated without thick reports will be expanded. The limit will be set at 60,000 euros.
– There will be ‘task forces’ to solve complex cases
– The cabinet wants to stop gas extraction this year, and a final decision will be made within a few weeks
– Money may no longer play a limiting role in claims handling and reinforcement, which is laid down in law.

– The opposition is extremely critical of the role of the Prime Minister. From the start of the debate, the parties aimed their arrows at Mark Rutte. ‘Why isn’t he getting up? And what are all the apologies to Groningen worth?’, they wonder.
– Several MPs fall over the Prime Minister’s remark during his public interrogation. Mark Rutte said that in 2018 he realized how great the impact of the high gas extraction was after the severe earthquake in Huizinge in 2013. Henk Nijboer (PvdA): ‘I think you lied about that.’
– Relatively little has therefore been said about the content of the policy. The emphasis so far has been mainly on the possible political consequences of the report.
– The first vote of no confidence has already been announced. The party of Wybren van Haga (BVNL) does this because of ‘the mismanagement around the Groningen gas field’.
– The Groningen Member of Parliament Sandra Beckerman gave an emotional speech and visibly touched several people present in the audience.
– The ChristenUnie was the first coalition party to speak. Party chairman Mirjam Bikker apologized for pausing the reinforcement operation in 2018.
– The opposition is attacking the coalition on the question of confidence: do parties in the cabinet still have confidence in Rutte? But the coalition parties have so far all given evasive answers.

Research by the University of Groningen shows that more Groningen residents continue to have complaints once their reinforcement process has been completed. Earthquake coach Melanie Postma also sees this in practice. Postma works for the municipality of Groningen and helps victims. ‘People struggle with all sorts of things once they’ve completed the entire process. And those are things we didn’t really expect.’
‘These people are listed in the books as ‘done’ or ‘completed’. But it turns out not to be. And the more houses are completed, the more problems we encounter. We are now investigating what to do with it.’
And then many residents are still waiting for something. processing what happened.
“You can compare it to mourning,” says her colleague Jodi Kremer. ‘The most difficult period starts after the funeral and when there are fewer and fewer visitors. You can see that here too. The feeling of insecurity is now gone, hassle with authorities, stress and money worries disappear and then there is room for processing.’
‘People have to learn to give it a place. They have been through a lot and were forced to leave their home. That remains a wound that opens quickly when you run into something.’

Yanbolluoglu gets emotional when she talks about the Turkish aid, or rather the lack of it, as she says herself. ‘From AFAD (the disaster and emergency relief management of the Turkish government, ed.) No one came to help at all. I called them for days and asked for help, but nothing happened. In the end you saw a lot rescueteams from the Netherlands, Israel, Japan and Hungary, but I have not seen anyone from AFAD.’
