The EU's controversial deportation bill is heading for a crucial vote next week at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, as lawmakers make last-minute efforts to amend legislation that would allow member states to deport rejected asylum seekers abroad.
The bill is likely to sail through at Wednesday's (17 June) plenary with the support of a right-wing majority that includes far-right forces and the centre-right European People's Party (EPP), following a political agreement with EU states earlier this month.
