A family of three, including a small child, have become the first people sent to the U.K. by France under an agreement in which Britain returns migrants who enter the country without authorization and France sends vetted asylum-seekers.
The Home Office said Wednesday that the arrival of the family was part of “critical first steps” in the program dubbed “one in, one out.” Four people who arrived in Britain by boat from France were flown back to France in recent days as part of the arrangement.
