Lord Roberts of Llandudno – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Roberts of Llandudno on 2015-09-17.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government which sections of United Kingdom immigration regulations are, or will be, relaxed for Syrian refugees under the Syrian Vulnerable Persons Relocation Scheme.

Lord Bates

The Syrian Vulnerable Persons Relocation Scheme has been running for around 18 months already, and has not involved any relaxation of the UK’s immigration rules. The Prime Minister announced on 7 September an expansion of that scheme.
