The Minister responsible for Direct Provision says it's important we have a dignified system for asylum seekers.

An expert group led by Catherine Day is recommending a new system, which would see people stay in temporary State accommodation for 3 months before being moved to local authority housing.

The group's findings, which are due to be published today, will inform the Government White Paper on ending Direct Provision.
