Recommendation 25

The government should publish, by the time it responds to this report, a clear policy for eligible Afghans who cannot safely, lawfully or affordably self-move to a third country. This should include criteria for identifying these cases and should set out steps to ensure that the 12-month deadline does not exclude eligible people because they lack the means or ability to travel independently. Without such a policy, the government cannot credibly claim that it is honouring its obligations to all eligible Afghans. (Recommendation, Paragraph 216)
