Fair Play: a guide for journalists in Scotland

About the guide

The Asylum Positive Images Group has launched a guide which aims to improve the quality of debate on asylum in Scotland.

The guide provides journalists in Scotland with essential information to enable high standards of reporting. It provides quick easy reference to contacts, topics and information sources.
