Så här är reglerna för att bli medborgare i Schweiz, som ni moderater beundrar. Jag hoppas att moderaterna vill införa liknande regler i Sverige också, och att vi slutar att ge ut svenska medborgarskap med den lättvindighet vi gör idag:
Foreign nationals who have lived in Switzerland for ten years and who hold a permanent residence permit (C permit) can submit an application for ordinary naturalisation to their commune or canton of residence. Time spent in Switzerland during an asylum procedure (N permit) or on a short stay permit (L permit) is not counted.
In addition, cantonal legislation requires a minimum residence period of between two and five years in the commune and in the canton concerned.
The competent authority in the canton checks whether you meet the formal requirements, are successfully integrated and are familiar with the Swiss way of life. They draw up a naturalisation report on these points.
The canton may also stipulate additional integration requirements.
In order to be granted a federal naturalisation licence, you must:
be successfully integrated;
be familiar with the Swiss way of life; and
not pose a threat to Switzerland?s internal or external security.
If all the formal and material requirements have been met, SEM issues the federal naturalisation licence and sends it to the cantonal naturalisation authority for a decision on naturalisation.
