The scale of the unfolding tragedy, exacerbated by the imminent onset of winter, requires the international community and the authorities in Afghanistan to place humanitarian needs at the centre of all plans and activities to resolve the Wider Crisis.

I thank the Minister for that answer, but 1,500 mental health beds have closed since 2011, which is causing a Wider Crisis, and a recent Care Quality Commission report found that, in one area over the previous year, 41 children had been detained in police cells because health-based places of safety were either not available or not staffed - and one of those children was 11 years old.

We have to meet our responsibilities in relation to those who have made it to Europe and in relation to the Wider Crisis.
