Title: 'More Token Gestures': A Refugee Council report into the use of vouchers for asylum seekers claiming Section 4 support

Authors: Refugee Council
Publication Date: October 2008.
Publication URL Address: http://www.refugeecouncil.org.uk/policy/position/2008/section4vouchers.htm
Source: Refugee Council Press Release - Report reveals “shocking” consequences of living on vouchers: http://www.refugeecouncil.org.uk/news/press/2008/October/20081006.htm (Web)

Additional Info: This report presents the results of research into the experiences of asylum seekers who receive Section 4 voucher support. The findings, endorsed by Oxfam, highlight that the current voucher system is inhumane, ineffective, and results in unnecessary suffering. The Refugee Council is calling for asylum seekers to be supported appropriately for the duration of their time in the UK and be granted permission to work.
