Written Question
Refugees: Afghanistan
Monday 18th October 2021

Asked by: Aaron Bell (Conservative - Newcastle-under-Lyme)

Question to the Home Office:

What steps her Department is taking to help ensure the effective implementation of the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy.

Answered by Priti Patel - Shadow Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs

It is why we have introduced a generous funding package, covering healthcare, accommodation, education, and integration. We are committed to working with local authorities and NGOs to ensure Afghans who are resettled in the UK are fully supported.
