Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what her advice is to people wishing to leave Afghanistan who are family members of British nationals and likely to qualify for the Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme, but who cannot afford to obtain a visa for a neighbouring country or to travel there.

We recognise the situation in Afghanistan is complex and presents significant challenges, including securing safe passage to another country.

The government is committed to working in step with the international community and continuing to do what can be done to support those still in Afghanistan who are eligible for resettlement to the UK to depart the country safely if they wish to do so. This includes coordinating with the countries neighbouring Afghanistan.
