Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, if he will list the professions eligible for consideration under category 4 of the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy scheme.

There is not a finite list of professions eligible for consideration under Category 4 of the ARAP scheme. As set out in published policy, decisions for eligibility under Category 4 are taken on a case-by-case basis against a set of criteria, which allows for broader consideration of applications than would be the case if considering against specific job roles.

The published criteria are available at:
