Motion Text

That this House notes the Home Secretary's support for safe and legal routes for people seeking asylum; acknowledges that the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) is severely limited and not meeting the desperate needs of the Sudanese people; and calls on the Government, bearing in mind the Foreign Secretary's report of the humanitarian crisis taking place in Sudan, to establish a safe and legal route for people from Sudan along the lines of the Ukrainian and Afghanistan schemes.
