Karin Smyth – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Karin Smyth on 2015-10-28.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many refugees the Government plans to resettle in the Bristol City Council area.

James Brokenshire

Resettlement under the government schemes is voluntary on the part of local authorities. We are grateful to those who take on this role and will continue to work in partnership with them.

We do not disclose the details of where refugees are resettled upon their arrival in the UK under the Government resettlement schemes as this may undermine the privacy and recovery of this vulnerable group of people.
