Under the Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme (ACRS), the Government will resettle more than 5,000 people in the first year and up to 20,000 over the coming years. Under pathway 3, eligible at-risk British Council and Gardaworld contractors and Chevening alumni will be considered for resettlement. The Government will provide further details when this part of the scheme is launched in the coming weeks.
