The Home Office has launched the Government's new scheme on No Recourse to Public Funds despite criticisms raised by service providers, immigration law practitioners, human rights organisations and others that the proposed backdated payments will not be adequate and will not meet the Government's human rights obligations to protect women from violence and destitution.
See the press release from the campaign group.

The No Recourse campaign needs your support NOW!
You can take action by asking your MP to sign the Early Day Motion on violence against women and the no recourse rule, and by signing your organisation up to the campaign statement. Please contact: charlotte@wrc.org.uk
