Labour — Aylesbury

Speaking in the House of Commons on 29 July 2024

Debate

Asylum Claims Backlog

Contribution

I appreciate the efforts that my hon. Friend has outlined. As the backlog is cleared, what steps will the Home Secretary take to ensure that newly recognised refugees do not face homelessness and destitution in the weeks after being granted status? Specifically, will she consider extending the move-on period to 56 days, in line with the Homelessness Reduction Act 2017?
