<p>Securing longer term accommodation is key to provision of support for those displaced by the crisis in Ukraine, and this includes hosting, the private rented sector, and other forms of good-quality transitional accommodation. I've already mentioned how many Ukrainians we have welcomed to Wales. We need to thank also those households who continue to offer to host Ukrainians in Wales.

We're providing £1.5 million this year to support with ongoing costs associated with the Ukraine response to our local authorities. Can I say how pleased I was that the new Foreign Secretary, Yvette Cooper, decided to make her first visit to Ukraine to show the UK Government's backing for Ukraine as a Government, which we, of course, as a Welsh Government, have clearly endorsed?</p>
