More than 1.1 million migrants are being resettled across Germany. At a meeting Thursday with Chancellor Angela Merkel, regional leaders demanded a doubling of financial aid and support for housing and schools.

In our view, there are still huge gap. We cannot see any great progress against the mountain of asylum applications, which continues to grow and registration would take far too long. The citizens are worried partly because we don’t really know who is here.

Chancellor Merkel struck a deal with her governing coalition partners Thursday which would facilitate deportations and restrict the rights of migrants to bring their families to Germany.

We want those with the prospect of remaining to be integrated but we also want to say that we need those who have no prospect of remaining should to return.

Germany anticipates the migrant influx could cost the state an extra $3.7 billion in extra social benefits during 2016. It's hoped German language classes will speed the migrants' entry into the labor market and cut the benefits bill.

But it’s uncertain there’ll be enough jobs, says the head of integration for the Berlin regional senate.

There is some capacity that can be absorbed. There is also a need for specific fields of the labor market. However, on the lower end of the labor market, there is, of course, the danger of competition.

Germershausen is ambiguous over whether Berlin could cope with more refugees.

Two answers, the first is no. The second no one expect so many to come in 2015. So a year back, I have also has said that we won't be able to house or host so many in 2015.

German lawmakers fear a second wave of migrants as family members attempt to join those already in Germany. Figures from the United Nations show a sharp increase in the number of women and children arriving on Europe’s shores in 2016.
