<p>We maintain regular dialogue with a variety of resettlement stakeholders, including
local authorities, Strategic Migration Partnerships and other support providers. To
date, our resettlement schemes have been supported by over 300 local authorities across
the UK, and we are extremely grateful for this support. <br> <br> Additionally, the
successful Community Sponsorship Scheme puts in place the Government’s commitment
to develop a scheme to allow community groups, charities and faith groups to support
refugees directly</p><p><br> Due to coronavirus (COVID-19) related restrictions and
pressures, both overseas and in the UK, it is not currently possible to undertake
any refugee resettlement activity. We continue to evaluate how to respond given these
restrictions and pressures, but we expect to resume refugee resettlement activity
when safe to do so.</p>
