Part of 1. 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:38 pm on 20 September 2016.
Well, in November 2015, we did establish the Syrian refugee taskforce. We were well ahead of the game in terms of other Governments. We were absolutely clear that Wales would take a fair share of refugees. The same is true of children, of course. The fact that the UK Government now has three children’s resettlement schemes is a welcome step in the right direction, and we want to make sure that Wales plays its full part in welcoming children, who have quite often lost their parents, children who have seen wars, children who have seen things in front of them that we would not want anybody—children or adults—to see, and we stand ready to help those children.
