These can be found at <a href="http://www.gov.uk/government/collections/migration-statistics" target="_blank">www.gov.uk/government/collections/migration-statistic</a></p><p>The next set of figures will be in the quarterly release on 21 May 2020. These figures will include the number of people resettled in the period January to March 2020 and will also include a breakdown of minors arriving under each scheme. We do not publish a breakdown of resettlement family reunifications.</p><p>The arrival of refugees under our schemes is currently impacted by travel restrictions globally. As a result, our current planned arrivals will not happen as originally scheduled. We are closely monitoring the situation and expect resettlements to resume when conditions allow.</p> answering member constituency Croydon South answering member printed Chris Philp grouped question UIN 37986 37987 question first answered 12/05/2020 16:06:59 answering member 4503 label Biography information for Chris Philp
