The applicant registered an asylum application on 29 October and was invited for a lodging interview at the Immigration Office on 8 November 2021. Between 29 October and 3 November, he tried to access the dispatching service of Fedasil at the arrival centre in Brussels to obtain material reception conditions. At first, he found the doors closed, then he was told that he would not receive accommodation as a single man due to the saturation of the reception system.

The tribunal found that there was no evidence of the fact that the applicant submitted an individual request for material reception conditions with Fedasil before turning to the court. It underlined that, the arrival centre was on strike for a day and that there were long queues in front of the centre, but this was not the only way to submit such a request, there were also possibilities to reach the dispatching service by e-mail or fax. Once the individual request submitted, the applicant should leave a reasonable time limit of at least 24 hours for Fedasil to reply.

For the abovementioned reasons, the tribunal dismissed the request.
