Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 3:16 pm on 19 October 2016.
I thank Gareth Bennett for that contribution. The committee will look at the wider community issues around community cohesion, as I mentioned in my response to Julie Morgan. In my statement, I identified that as a significant part of the committee’s work. We do need to hear from others beyond those groups that provide the services and have a particular role in helping to resettle and supporting asylum seekers, refugees and unaccompanied children. Of course, funding is important. There are many issues around the level of funding that the UK Government provides to local authorities, for example, and I think that that has been an important part of the information that local authorities have sought in advance of taking part in the various schemes. So, I think that all those matters will be significant to the work of the committee in carrying out this inquiry.
