Test used in residence applications 10 years ago may have broken rules
A Danish language and knowledge test used between 2010 and 2012 in connection with residence applications in family reunification cases and for religious leaders may have been too difficult according to legal stipulations, newspaper Jyllands-Posten reports.
As such, some people may have been incorrectly refused a residency permit.
The test itself is still in use and is a requirement for religious leaders who wish to extend their residency in Denmark.
We’ll have more details on this in an article today.
Extended waiting times for driving tests
People hoping to pass their driving test and hit the road this summer face a longer wait than normal with driving schools struggling with a backlog of tests, broadcaster DR reports.
The queue for tests built up due to postponements caused by Covid-19 restrictions.
The National Police and police in both Copenhagen and North Zealand have in recent months been unable to live up to targets for maximum waiting times for tests, DR writes.
An effort is now being made to alleviate the problem by offering extra test slots, the two police districts both said.
Sunny weather forecast after overcast start
If you are anywhere in Denmark this morning you probably woke up to cloudy skies, but that is expected to change as the day progresses.
Temperatures, cool at the start of the day, could reach up to 22 degrees Celsius in most of the country and 25 degrees in North Jutland.
“(Clouds) will clear up more than at the moment, but there will still be quite a lot of clouds, especially over the southern and eastern parts of the country,” DMI meteorologist Bolette Brødsgaard told DR.
DMI also again urged people lighting barbecues or flaming weeds to exercise caution, with the drought index and thereby risk of wildfire moderate to high all over Denmark.
Danish researcher found unexpected response to lockdown in people with ADHD
A researcher attached to Aarhus University’s HOPE project, which looks into societal trends during the Covid-19 pandemic, found that some people with ADHD responded positively to disruption to their daily lives caused by the lockdown in Spring last year.
In some cases, the people who took part in the study had coping tools that others lacked. The findings of the research could prove beneficial for post-pandemic working environments.
Here’s our article about the research – it’s well worth a few minutes of your time.
