<p>Under the Sandhurst Treaty, signed in January 2018, the UK government committed
€50 million to implement projects agreed under the terms of the Treaty. This full
funding package has now been allocated, and officials are in the process of making
the final funding transfers. Payments have been made directly to the French Interior
Ministry and its constituent bodies, or where necessary directly to organisations
responsible for security infrastructure improvements.</p><p><br>Payments have not
been made directly to migrants. However, a portion of the Sandhurst funding has been
utilised to support access to French domestic asylum services. £3.6 million was specifically
allocated to funding the development of the Dublin and Dubs process to support transfers
of eligible children to the UK, including training for those working with unaccompanied
children, family tracing and targeted information campaigns.</p>
