What steps her Department is taking to monitor far-right activity.

Reply

The government is absolutely committed to tackling those who spread views that promote violence and hatred against individuals and communities in our society, and that radicalise others into terrorism.To understand such threats, we routinely monitor and assess all forms of extremist activity and behaviour, which includes Extreme Right Wing. We work closely with law enforcement and multi-agency partners to respond to any such activity which may pose as a threat.

What steps her Department is taking to ensure that Ukrainians living in the UK are not separated from their families, in the context of changes to the Ukraine visa schemes in February 2024.

Reply

Ukrainian family members, including children, are not prevented from entering the UK. The Homes for Ukraine Scheme remains open to new applicants, their applications must be sponsored by someone who is British, Irish or who has settled status. Ukrainians who meet the eligibility criteria can also join family members through standard visa or family routes, which attract a fee. Our Ukraine schemes are kept under continual review as we look to provide stability both for those we have welcomed to the UK and those who still need our sanctuary.
