Answer

I refer the Member to the attached table. These ex-gratia payments are made to settle potential liability, to reimburse costs and fees, and to pay other costs, including temporary accommodation. I am advised that this data excludes payments related to the On-sold Programme that are not covered by the On-sold Services Agreement (e.g., temporary accommodation for On-sold applicants).
