Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many Afghan interpreters (1) have already been relocated to the United Kingdom under the post-conflict redundancy scheme, and (2) have had their application approved and are awaiting relocation.
Over 170 former local staff have already been relocated to the UK under the Ex Gratia Redundancy Scheme along with approximately 400 family members. Over 35 more local staff have had their application approved and been granted a visa, along with their immediate family members and will be relocating to the UK in the near future.
