Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans she has to provide additional funding for English language tuition for refugees who gain settlement rights in the UK under the standard procedure for claiming asylum.

All those granted refugee status or humanitarian protection become eligible for government skills funding as any other UK resident and are not subject to the normal 3 year qualifying period.

When someone receives a positive decision on their asylum claim they are provided with relevant information to allow them to access the services they need.
