This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition Allow refugees granted leave to remain to apply for qualification loan scheme.
The Government to create a qualification loan scheme with no interest for refugees granted leave to remain to enrol on English courses and/or qualification programs that may lead to a career path. The loan will be repaid when earning on the job. Please sign this petition to help refugees!
More details
This qualification loan scheme will help refugees granted leave to remain in the U.K. to integrate faster and efficiently by contributing to the British society fairly and not to be given state benefits. No burden for tax payers and a fair chance in life for those in desperate need to provide for their families. I believe it’s a win win situation for refugees, tax payers and the economy, by minimising staff shortages in sectors such as health care, transportation, hospitality, agriculture, etc.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
We can't publish petitions when the request is something that's already happening or something that has been announced since you started your petition.
We think your petition is covered by Government or Parliament action already. If you'd like something else, you could start a new petition clearly explaining what it is.
The Government already provides interest-free refugee integration loans, that can be used for education and training for work: https://www.gov.uk/refugee-integration-loan
We could accept a petition calling for changes to these loans, but it would need to be clear what changes you want to be made to existing provisions for loans.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
