Founded in 2000 the National Refugee Integration Forum (NRIF) is the essential link between national, regional and local problem solving. Its primary role is to identify and propose solutions to the issues that refugees face. There are five sub-groups, all chaired by people with recognised expertise in their fields from outside central government.
The NRIF is chaired by Minister Joan Ryan MP, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Immigration & Citizenship.
