Resettlement: Afghanistan
Asked by: Wendy Chamberlain (Liberal Democrat - North East Fife)
Monday 17th March 2025

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many applications were rejected under the Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme (a) Pathway 1, (b) Pathway 2 and (c) Pathway 3 in each month since August 2021.

Answered by Seema Malhotra - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Education) (Equalities)

The Afghan Resettlement Programme (ARP) brings together existing Afghan resettlement schemes into a single, efficient pipeline. Further information about this is available on GOV.UK at: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/afghan-resettlement-programme.

The Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme (ACRS) is not application based. Eligible people are prioritised and referred for resettlement under its 3 pathways, and further information about the scheme can be found on GOV.UK at: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/afghan-citizens-resettlement-scheme.

Whilst the Home Office has not published the specific information requested, our latest Afghan resettlement operational data publication (found on GOV.UK at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/afghan-resettlement-programme-operational-data/afghan-resettlement-programme-operational-data) shows that since the end of Op Pitting (in August 2021) up until the end of December 2024 we have welcomed around 34,940 people to safety from Afghanistan and the region. This includes 31,944 individuals who have been resettled under the ARP.*

The operational data publication also shows that we have so far granted Indefinite Leave to Remain to:

  • 9,784 under ACRS Pathway 1
  • 1,247 under ACRS Pathway 2
  • 1,594 under ACRS Pathway 3

Further statistics on individuals resettled or relocated under the Afghan schemes are available in the latest Immigration System Statistics release published on 27 February 2025. This can be accessed on GOV.UK at: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/immigration-statistics-quarterly-release.

Airports: Carbon Emissions
Asked by: Wendy Chamberlain (Liberal Democrat - North East Fife)
Tuesday 18th March 2025

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent assessment she has made of the potential impact of airport expansion on the ability of the UK to meet its net zero targets.

Answered by Mike Kane - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

The government is committed to reaching net zero by 2050 and meeting our climate change obligations, as set out in the Climate Change Act. Delivering greener transport to help make Britain a clean energy superpower is a Department for Transport priority.

We have been clear that any airport expansion proposals will need to demonstrate they contribute to economic growth and can be delivered in line with the UK’s legally binding climate change commitment.

DfT analysis shows that we can achieve aviation net zero 2050 under a range of assumptions about future technology development without the Government needing to intervene directly to limit airport expansion.

Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency: Communication
Asked by: Wendy Chamberlain (Liberal Democrat - North East Fife)
Tuesday 18th March 2025

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will publish any guidance provided to the DVLA on methods of communicating with license holders.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) uses several methods of communicating with licence holders to ensure they are kept informed.

The DVLA sends out important documents, reminders, notifications by traditional mail and encrypted email where a licence holder consents to correspond in this way. The DVLA also provides a suite of online driver services, where customers can renew their driving licence or notify a medical condition.

Licence holders can access their information and manage their driving licence, vehicle registration and other services if they have a customer account. Digital tax reminders are already available within the customer account and this is being extended to include digital driving licence reminders. Customers can track the progress of their driving licence application and communicate with the DVLA using this service.

The DVLA also provides customer service via telephone, which allows licence holders to ask questions or resolve issues directly. In addition to these services, the DVLA uses social media platforms to share information and updates with the public about its services.

The DVLA has a dedicated team responsible for the improvement of its driver licensing services and communications.

Select Committee Inquiry
20 Mar 2025
Access to the House of Commons and its Procedures
Modernisation Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 9 May 2025)


One of the most frequently raised areas of interests during the committee’s call for views has been accessibility.  

This inquiry will consider the accessibility of the physical parliamentary estate and of Parliamentary procedures, language and information. The committee’s work will be focused on finding new ways of ensuring the work of the House of Commons is inclusive and more easily understood.  

There is currently work in progress to consider the plan for the restoration and renewal of the Palace of Westminster and other parts of the Parliamentary estate, which this inquiry will not cover. This inquiry will not consider individual cases or complaints.  

The committee’s work on accessibility will be covering: 

  • Access to the Parliamentary estate and its services.  
  • Access to the House of Commons procedures and processes, and barriers to participation. 
  • Access to Parliamentary information for MPs and the public.
