Summary of the Survey of New Refugees December 2005 - March 2009
Home Office, 2010
This report summarises the key implications and findings of the Survey of New Refugees (SNR), which was commissioned by UKBA to provide a longitudinal study of refugee integration in the UK. The report says that support for refugees needs to be most intensive during the early months following the asylum decision; good English language skills are associated with other aspects of integration such as employment; the poorer health of some refugees may need to be addressed before other integration objectives can be achieved; and support covering the transition from Home Office accommodation to more permanent housing may reduce the risk of homelessness among refugees.
