UK refugee scheme set to launch
Under the new scheme people in the UK will be able to nominate an individual or family to stay with them rent-free, or in another property, for at least six months.
Local authorities will also receive £10,500 in extra funding per refugee for support services - with more for children of school age.Levelling Up Secretary Michael Gove will make a statement in Parliament later to set out further details. He told Good Morning Britain that people, businesses and councils were "ready to step up" and welcome refugees but the system to do so has been "far too complicated".
