The PVV presented these three controversial anti-Islamic laws long before the elections. According to one proposal, possession of a Koran should be punishable by up to five years in prison. In the second draft of the law, the basic rights of people with multiple nationalities should be limited. For example, the right to vote should be taken away from them. In the third project, Wilders wanted to make it possible for people suspected of terrorism to be detained without a court order. There was no parliamentary majority for any of these proposals.
