Dubs Refugee Scheme To Accept 130 More Children After 'Administrative Error'

The Government has admitted the UK will accept a further 130 child refugees through the Dubs scheme after miscounting how many places were available.
The programme controversially closed earlier in the year having accepted just 350 displaced youngsters, not thousands as was expected.
Minister for Immigration Robert Goodwill used a written statement to blame an “administrative error” for one region of the UK pledging 130 places “which were not accounted” for in its total.
