	Scottish Refugee Council - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		May, 1999 saw an influx of Kosovan refugees to Scotland, as a result of a resettlement agreement with the UNHCR and Scottish Refugee Council was at the forefront in helping Kosovans settle and integrate in Scottish society.
		Scottish Refugee Council offers advice and advocacy to asylum seekers, and is also concerned with issues of settlement and integration for those who have made Scotland their home and can never return to their former countries.
		Scottish Refugee Council also plays a part in community development, supporting refugee community organisations in Scotland, helping refugees tell their stories to the media, and involving them in policy discussions with politicians and service providers.

	Scottish Refugee Council response to Secure Borders, Safe Haven: Integration with Diversity in Modern Britain
		The Scottish Refugee Council is a national agency providing advice, information and assistance to asylum seekers and refugees in Scotland; promoting a strategic response to refugee needs and campaigning to ensure Scotland plays a role in meeting the UK's legal and humanitarian obligations under the 1951 United Nations Convention on Refugees.
		The Scottish Refugee Council condemns the trafficking of people into UK, but recognises that it occurs partly because of the inconsistencies of EU asylum policies and the increased controls and deterrence measures used to prevent asylum seekers travelling to the UK in any legitimate way.
		However, the Scottish Refugee Council is concerned that the cards may be used inappropriately to assess rights to essential services at the point of need and, although the Paper states that asylum seekers will not be required to carry them at all times, in reality they may be used to increase stop and search.

		Mick is the SRC's Community Development Team Leader, helping refugees to take an active role in the development of themselves and their communities.
		His job is made particularly challenging by the implementation of the Immigration and Asylum Act (1999), which led to a dramatic increase in the number of asylum seekers being dispersed to Scotland and raised major issues of settlement and integration for those who will never be able to return to their home countries.
		In April 2004 the SRC and EITI completed a £36,000 written translation project for the Community Response Co-ordination Group (CRCG), which was funded by the Scottish Executive.
