Applications are set to open for Northern Ireland residents to host Ukrainian refugees
The Executive Office has strongly encouraged expressions of interest, and these can be made through an online portal due to open today."While not all the details have yet been announced by Westminster, we are working at pace, making preparations so we stand ready to provide sanctuary to Ukrainian refugees," the spokesman said.
The spokesman said the department is in close contact with the Home Office and the Department for Levelling Up, Communities and Housing and with colleagues in other jurisdictions. Concern had been expressed over Northern Ireland's contribution to the Ukraine response in the absence of a First and deputy First Minister in office to lead the effort.
