Hastings Borough Council provided an update (letter attached) on the Council's plans to support the Syrian Resettlement Programme to Amber Rudd MP on 30th March 2016 following the South East Strategic Partnership for Migration, contacting the Council about a letter Amber sent to another MP. On 2nd August 2016, the office of Amber Rudd followed up this contact in an email requesting an update. In response to this enquiry, the Council sent a further update on 10th August (letter attached). The letter starts 'Further to my letter to you of 16 March'. The date is incorrect and should be 30th March.Attachments
