CORRI: Non Hong Kong Family Reunion Cases
Please refer
to Stephen Nash's letter of 28 April,
I attach a letter and enclosure from Liz Hebden in
he Home Office, which sets out the stage reached in
the SCORRI Report undertaking that some 60
ndo-Chinese refugees in camps in South East Asia will be
ccepted for resettlement in the UK under the relaxed
amily reunion criteria. As you will see, a sizeable
umber of the 221 refugees originally identified as being
ligible under this scheme are
in camps in Thailand.
It
not clear for the moment how many of these will be
egarded by the Home Office as priority cases, although I
would draw your attention to paragraph 2 of Miss Hebden's
etter where she describes Malaysia and Thailand as the
ireas of greatest need. If, in the wake of the publicity
surrounding the CCS DPT meeting, you are pressed on the
in nawal kamas
question of resettlement, you might refer to the
contiming
rospects offered by the post-SCORRI process.
