Dutch archives on 300,000 accused Nazi collaborators to open to the public in 2025 – In a country notoriously slow to accept responsibility for mistakes and distance itself from its occupiers, a discussion on collaboration might soon take place in the open | Timesofisrael

JTA — The Dutch government is planning to throw open information about 300,000 people investigated for their collaboration with the Nazis, in a move that could accelerate a reckoning with the Netherlands’ Holocaust record.
For the past seven decades, only researchers and relatives of those accused of collaborating with the Nazis could access the information held by the Dutch archives. But a law guarding the data is set to expire in 2025.
