Refugee & Migrant Justice (RMJ)is facing possible closure due to bureaucratic rules that lead to late payment by the Government for asylum and immigration work. RMJ is a campaigning legal charity that provides free, high quality legal advice and representation to asyluim-seekers, refugees and other migrants. If RMJ is forced to close, then over 100,000 asylum-seekers and other vulnerable migrants will be left without legal assistance.
