Syrian refugees accepted in all 22 local authorities in Wales

All 22 local authorities in Wales have agreed to accept refugees from Syria, Communities Minister Lesley Griffiths has told AMs.

Ms Griffiths said a "task force", holding its first meeting in November, would assess how many Wales could take.

Prime Minister David Cameron has said up to 20,000 refugees will be accepted in the UK over the next five years, under his government's expanded resettlement scheme.
