Baroness Williams of Trafford
That is precisely the type of thing that both Governments are collaborating on and, yes, making the Dublin framework work is of course a top priority.
Lord Roberts of Llandudno (LD)
How many of the 20,000 refugees we pledged to receive into the UK in the term of this Parliament have been received up to now? And if I ask that question in October, what answer does the Minister forecast I will get?
Baroness Williams of Trafford
My Lords, I would not want to forecast anything but I am pleased to tell the noble Lord that the total number who have been resettled is 1,854 but, since the programme expanded, that number is 1,602, which is very pleasing indeed.
