The Ministry of Defence keeps all transitional accommodation under review in order to manage changes to the arrival and departure rate.<\/p>

Transitional accommodation on the Defence estate is being used on a temporary basis prior to ARAP-eligible Afghans onward movement into settled accommodation as quickly as possible.<\/p>
