<p>Through the Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme (ACRS), the UK will relocate up
to 20,000 people at risk, including women and girls and minority groups, so they can
rebuild their lives in safety. The scheme is not yet open and remains under development;
however, we would anticipate that those resettled will include children within family
units. Additionally, unaccompanied children in the region may be offered resettlement
where it is determined that resettlement to the UK is in their best interests and
they have been identified as eligible for the scheme.</p><p>Further information on
the eligibility, prioritisation and referral of people for the ACRS is set out in
the policy statement published on gov.uk on 13 September, available at <a href="http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/afghanistan-resettlement-and-immigration-policy-statement"
