	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2015 answer text <p>Local authorities are required to provide refugees they resettle under the Syrian Vulnerable Persons Resettlement scheme with a 12 month support package which is being funded using the overseas aid budget. Many of the refugees have significant medical and social care needs, and the costs therefore vary according to their individual circumstances.</p><p>At the Spending Review, the Government committed £129 million to assist with local authority costs over years 2-5 of the scheme. This will be allocated on a tariff basis over four years, with £5,000 per refugee provided for their second year in the UK.</p> answering member constituency Watford answering member printed Richard Harrington question first answered 21/12/2015 15:15:14 answering member 4068 label Biography information for Lord Harrington of Watford previous answer version 36262 answering member constituency Watford answering member printed Richard Harrington answering member 4068 label Biography information for Lord Harrington of Watford
