Resettlement: Chagossians
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she has allocated funding to support the (a) resettlement and (b) integration of Chagossians in the UK.
Answered by Seema Malhotra
The British nationality route for those of Chagossian decent allows individuals to become British citizens and to build their future in the UK, should they wish to, with the full range of rights and entitlements afforded to any other British citizen.
The Home Office has made funding available to cover costs incurred by local authorities providing statutory support to newly arrived Chagossian British citizens.
