Individuals will be granted leave for three years and will be able to work and access public services and benefits.</p><p>The bespoke ‘Homes for Ukraine’ scheme will ultimately allow individuals, charities, community groups and businesses in the UK to bring Ukrainians to safety – including those with no family ties to the UK. There will be no limit on the number of arrivals, and those who come to the UK on the scheme will have permission to live and work here for up to three years. They will also have access to public services and benefits.</p><p>This government will work closely with international partners on the ground to support displaced Ukrainians in need of a home.</p> answering member constituency Torbay answering member printed Kevin Foster question first answered 22/03/2022 16:05:41 answering member 4451 label Biography information for Kevin Foster previous answer version 55113 answering member constituency Torbay answering member printed Kevin Foster answering member 4451 label Biography information for Kevin Foster
