We are working with the authorities in neighbouring countries and with international partners to ensure biometric enrolment can be carried out in as rapid and efficient a manner as possible.</p><p>The UK is working with international partners, including non-governmental organisations and other countries, to secure safe routes out of Afghanistan as soon as they become available, starting with those in most need. We also intend to establish a diplomatic presence in Afghanistan as soon as the security and political situation allows. We are coordinating this effort with allies.</p> answering member constituency Torbay answering member printed Kevin Foster question first answered 08/07/2022 09:47:14 answering member 4451 label Biography information for Kevin Foster
