Municipality of Delft response: We would also like to mention that the Municipality bases its forecast on the annual forecast of the national student monitor that, commissioned by Duwo, customises it to Delft. We also know that it is always different in practice. The main message is that there is a significant shortfall in rooms and that this, even with speedy new builds, is not expected to be entirely addressed. The focus lies on carrying out feasible new builds and densification plans for the numbers stated in the Coalition Agreement. We are pleased that a national policy is under development to better regulate the inflow of international students.
