    Poland to get 440,000 euros from European Refugee Fund

    Warsaw, July 25


    Poland will get 440,000 euros this year
    from the European Refugee Fund to receive immigrants, their
    integration and for repatriation of displaced persons, the interior
    ministry reported in a statement issued to PAP.

    To get the money Polish institutions and non-governmental
    organisations have to cover 25 percent of an undertaking from their
    own funds.

    Head of the section for the European Refugee Fund Bartosz Ziolkowski
    said this year the section received 507,000 euro worth of projects for
    legal, medical assistance to refugees, the purchase of clothes and
    footwear and assistance in repatriation.

    Last year more than 6.9 thousand people applied for a
    status of refugee with 82 thousand from Czechnya. the group of
    applicants included also citizens of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Armenia
    and India. Close to 50 percent of them were houses by refugee
    centres.
