Question to the Home Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to resettle refugees through community sponsorship and humanitarian programmes.
In the Restoring Order and Control policy statement, published in November 2025, the Government committed to transforming its approach to safe and legal routes. This included the creation of a named sponsorship scheme and capped routes for refugee and displaced students to come to the UK to study or for work.
The delivery of the new routes will support the Government’s overall objective of providing an orderly and controlled system of safe and legal routes that is aligned with community capacity to welcome refugees.
Work is underway to deliver the new routes. Further details will be set out in due course.
