We are working closely with the Devolved Administrations on the Homes for Ukraine scheme, including enabling the Scottish and Welsh Governments to act as direct sponsors to Ukrainian nationals. This is in addition to Ukrainians being sponsored by individuals in Scotland and Wales. There is no cap on the Ukraine Sponsorship Scheme, with the Scottish Government currently working towards 3,000 and the Welsh Government to 1,000 placements under Devolved Government sponsorship.
