By December 2027, every police force in England and Wales is to have its own specialist rape and sexual offence team to protect women and girls from violence and abuse. We've brought this forward by 18 months because the scale of violence against women and girls demands urgency. Alongside this, £13.3 million of new funding will support specialist Protection Order Teams to test ways to strengthen the enforcement of protection orders to protect victims, improve offender management and prevent further harm. We're also expanding intensive perpetrator management to tackle the root causes of abuse, prevent reoffending and help break the cycle of violence.

New safe and legal routes for refugees to come to the UK will begin to rollout in the autumn, giving genuine refugees a pathway to rebuild their lives. Our new community sponsorship scheme will allow approved groups to choose the refugees they sponsor, taking responsibility for their housing, integration and supporting them into work. Trusted universities will be able to directly sponsor refugees through a new refugee study route. A new refugee work sponsorship route is expected to open next year. All arrivals will have refugee status, undergo strict biometric screening, criminality checks and health assessments before arrival, to ensure support reaches those in genuine need. Numbers will start small and build over time, ensuring the routes remain controlled and sustainable while public confidence is restored in Britain's immigration system. The first refugee arrivals are expected by autumn 2027.
