To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what assistance, in cash, his Department has given, or plans to give, to assist the resettlement of Bosnian refugees or asylum seekers in Scotland.

My right hon. and learned Friend the Home Secretary is responsible for the funding of reception and resettlement arrangements for former detainees and their dependants from concentration camps in Bosnia whom the Government have agreed to accept in the United Kingdom at the request of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.
