We remain fully committed to delivering our commitment to transfer the specified number of 480 children under Section 67 of the Immigration Act 2016 and are working very closely with participating States, to deliver the scheme in line with their national laws.

Over 220 children are already in the UK. We will not provide a running commentary on numbers and will publish the details once all children are in the UK.
