I propose to take Questions Nos. 756 and 757 together.

Under Article 2, the Temporary Protection Directive applies to the following groups of people who have had to flee Ukraine due to the invasion by Russia :

a) Ukrainian nationals who were residing in Ukraine before 24 February 2022;

b) Nationals of a third country (other than Ukraine) or a stateless person who would have benefited from international protection (for example: Refugee status) or an equivalent national protection status in Ukraine and were residing there before 24 February 2022;

c) Family members of persons covered by a) and b), where their family already existed in Ukraine, prior to 24 February.

The table below shows the number of people who were granted or refused temporary protection by my Department for each month of 2025 and up to 9 November. It does not include those who voluntarily withdrew from temporary protection at a later date.
