The Conservative government of the United Kingdom has placed a limit on the number of lone child refugees it will accept into the country, citing fears that human traffickers were exploiting the system.
About 350 children will be admitted - far fewer than the 3,000 originally expected under the law that had been aimed at helping some of the tens of thousands of migrant children across Europe.
Around 200 children have been brought in thus far.
