PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Refugees: Resettlement (12 April 2021)

Parliament was informed by Written Ministerial Statement on 18 March (https://questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-statements/detail/2021-03-18/hcws855) that the new global UK Resettlement Scheme (UKRS) commenced on completion of the Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme. Through UKRS we are committed to welcoming refugees through resettlement in the months and years to come. The Home Office continues to work closely with partners to access capacity for resettlement activity, as we recover from the pandemic. As set out in the New Plan for Immigration we will continue to improve our resettlement offer as a safe and legal route to the UK for refugees in need of protection.
