Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether the asylum seeker cap for local authority areas will continue to be applied when seeking accommodation for refugees (a) from Ukraine and (b) not from Ukraine.

There are no limits on the number of refugees (those who have been granted asylum or humanitarian protection) which a Local Authority can house if appropriate accommodation can be identified.

We continue to encourage all local authorities to work with us to support providing accommodation in their areas for those who are resettled or claim asylum in the UK.
