Full dispersal scheme
Dear Staffordshire Moorlands District Council,
Can you confirm that you are taking in African refugees under the Government's full dispersal scheme?
I understand that all council authorities are required to take these people in and note with interest that this definitely has been happening on some scale nationwide.
Yours faithfully,
Robert Toone
