[Family reunification and family formation migration strongly decreased].
"Statistics on international migration in the Netherlands do not make a distinction by reason of migration, e.g. family reunification and family formation.  Because of the need for information on these types of migration, estimates were made based on demographic characteristics. The estimates show that the number of family reunionists was stable between 1987 and 1991....Recently, the Dutch policy on immigration has become more restrictive. Although information with respect to more recent years is largely lacking, tentative estimates suggest that the 1994 number of family reunionists and family forming immigrants combined has shown a strong decrease compared to 1991."
