Under the Windsor Framework professional operators, including growers and garden centres, can move plants (including trees) and seeds between Great Britain and Northern Ireland via the new Northern Ireland plant health label scheme.<\/p>
<\/p>
Consumers wishing to source plants and seeds direct from GB growers will be able to do so through a registered operator in Northern Ireland. We maintain a close working relationship with the horticultural industry to ensure that consumers can access plants and trees from a wide variety of sources.<\/p>
<\/p>
We continue to have regular conversations with the EU on a wide range of issues related to the application of the Windsor Framework and its impacts on consumers in Northern Ireland and Great Britain.<\/p>

Parliament was informed by Written Ministerial Statement on 18 March that the new global UK Resettlement Scheme (UKRS) commenced on completion of the Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme.<\/p>
(https://questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-statements/detail/2021-03-18/hcws855)<\/p>
We are committed to welcoming vulnerable refugees through resettlement in the months and years to come, as well as through other safe and legal routes such as Refugee Family Reunion. Since 2015 we have resettled over 25,000 refugees through our resettlement schemes, in addition to granting over 29,000 Refugee Family Reunion visas in the last 5 years. As set out in the New Plan for Immigration we will continue to strengthen our resettlement offer as a safe and legal route to the UK for refugees in need of protection.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4311", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Williams of Trafford"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2021-06-22", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2021-06-22T15:17:39.55Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2021-06-08", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Refugees: Resettlement"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government when they plan to resume resettlement programmes for refugees.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4345", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for The Lord Bishop of Southwark"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "The Lord Bishop of Southwark"} ], "uin" : "HL894"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1174434", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Cabinet Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1174434/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
