Date:

Wednesday, 2nd April 2008

Venue:

PAiH, 98 West George Street, Glasgow

 

Course Content:

There are fast changing laws/procedures for organisations dealing with EU Nationals (the ‘accession’ countries, refugees, migrants and asylum seekers. Who are they? What is the legislative background? What are the entitlements? What are the needs? How do organisations, including housing organisations, respond to these areas: what should they do?

 

These question areas and others will be explored and answered in this briefing. It draws on the extensive experience of PAiH and other agencies, and will also explore background facts and figures, what responsibilities an organisation has in this area, including housing organisations, and how such organisations can deal with these groups in a proactive and positive way.

 

The course will draw on good practice and experience from Scotland and elsewhere in the UK, and will include course materials that summarise the law, along with roles and responsibilities.
