What this measures

The number of people (main applicants and their dependants) receiving Home Office asylum support at the end of the quarter, split by the local authority they are accommodated in. This is a stock, not a flow.

Refugees who have been granted status, people on resettlement or Ukraine schemes, or the share of a local authority's population; local authority names are as published and not mapped to official codes.
