answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/06/2016 answer text <p>The Government continues to work with key EU Member States to ensure the Dublin Regulation family reunification process works effectively.</p><p>Under the UK-France Joint Declaration of 20 August 2015, the UK and France have committed to ensuring that the provisions of the Dublin III Regulation are used efficiently and effectively. To assist the handling of such cases, the two Governments have established a permanent official contact group, agreed single points of contact within respective Dublin Units and we have seconded an asylum expert to the French administration to facilitate the improvement of all stages of the process. The UK and France are running regular joint communication campaigns in northern France which inform unaccompanied children and others of their right to claim asylum in France and of the family reunion process.</p><p>We are also providing support to the Dublin Units in Greece and Italy bilater-ally and through European Asylum Support Office. On 4 May we announced the Government will work with local authorities on plans to resettle unaccompanied children from Europe. We are looking to transfer children who were already present in Europe before the EU-Turkey deal came into force on 20 March, where it is in their best interests.</p><p>We will work closely with local authorities to implement this initiative. It is important that we ensure we fulfil our obligations to children who are already in the UK, as well as ensuring we have the right support for those who may be brought to the UK from Europe. We will also consult relevant Non-Governmental Organisations, the UNHCR, UNICEF and Member States.</p> answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire question first answered 09/06/2016 15:04:04 answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire
