<p>The responsibility for unaccompanied children in Europe lies with the Member State
in which they are present. The UK can only contribute in ways agreed with the authorities
in the relevant Member State and in compliance with EU law.</p><p>The UK has established
a £10 million Refugee Children Fund for Europe to support the needs of vulnerable
refugee and migrant children arriving in Europe. The fund includes targeted support
to meet the specific needs of un-accompanied and separated children. Support will
include identifying children in need, providing safe places for at risk children and
services such as coun-selling and legal advice.</p>
