Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she plans to review the effectiveness of integration systems for refugees.

We are working towards achieving more integrated communities and creating the conditions for everyone to live and work successfully alongside each other; and in the New Year the Government will publish an integration strategy.

The Vulnerable Persons and Vulnerable Children’s Resettlement Schemes are being evaluated through a programme of quantitative data work and qualitative research with refugees and key delivery partners. A key focus of this work is examining integration progress according to a range of key measures and what can be done to improve this.
