<p>The Greek Government is responsible for ensuring the needs of refugees and migrants
living in Greece are met. The UK Government is committed to supporting Greece’s efforts
to manage migration effectively, which includes working with the Greek Government
to support the most vulnerable.</p><p>To meet the Government’s aim of enabling the
most vulnerable unaccompanied children where it was in their best interest to relocate
from Europe to the UK, in December 2018, the Government removed the date criterion
in the Dubs Amendment; meaning that participating States such as Greece can now refer
the most vulnerable children regardless of when they arrived into Europe.</p><p>In
addition, as per responses HL10488 and HL11028, we continue to provide expert staff
to the EU Commission and the European Asylum Support Office teams in Greece and continue
to provide interpreters to support the work of the Greek Reception and Identification
Service to support Greece’s response in the island hotspots.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
