question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government how they intend to encourage the integration of asylum seekers into communities.
tabling member printed	Lord Roberts of Llandudno
uin	HL16881
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/07/2019 answer text <p>This Government’s priority is to focus our efforts and resources to support those who most need it, rather than invest in integration for those who may not qualify for international protection. Currently, around half of those who seek asylum in the UK are found not to need international protection. This is why support towards integration is offered at the point where someone has been recognised as a refugee.</p><p>The Government published the cross-government Integrated Communities Action plan in February 2019. In the action plan we have committed to ensuring all refugees are supported and empowered to integrate and rebuild their lives in the UK, focusing on improving support for English language, employment, mental health, and orientation to life in the UK.</p> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 16/07/2019 16:07:31 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to engage with businesses, employers and other stakeholders before making a final decision on future salary thresholds for skilled workers from outside the UK; and whether that timescale will be shortened in the event of a no-deal Brexit.
tabling member printed	Lord Rogan
uin	HL16883
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/07/2019 answer text <p>Following the publication of the Government’s White Paper ‘The UK’s future skills-based immigration system’ (Cm9722) on 19 December 2018, Ministers and officials are undertaking an extensive year long engagement programme with a wide range of stakeholders across the UK, including with the private, public and voluntary sector and local government, as well as industry representatives and individual businesses. We have already delivered over 100 events in every nation of the UK, reaching almost 1500 stakeholders.</p><p>As part of our engagement, on 24 June 2019, the Government asked the Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) to consider the issue of minimum salary thresholds in more detail. As part of this new commission, we have asked the MAC to look at a number of issues including the approach to calculating salary thresholds, the levels at which they should be set, the case for greater regional variation and the impact of exemptions from minimum salary thresholds. This report is due by January 2020.</p><p><br>We have been very clear that no decision on the levels at which salary thresholds should be set will be taken until we have completed the UK-wide engagement process that is currently underway.</p> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 16/07/2019 16:06:32 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford
