(3) Where there is a large-scale influx of persons claiming to fall within the meaning of refugees under section 3, the Commissioner shall, in consultation with other agencies advise the Cabinet Secretary on emergency measures to be taken including- (a) designation of areas for reception, transit and residence of refugees, having due regard to the security requirement for refugees to be settled at a reasonable distance from the frontier of their country of origin; (b) provision of adequate and appropriate facilities and services necessary for the group of persons affected by the influx with particular reference to women, children, victims of trauma, persons of old age and persons with disabilities; and, (c) ensuring the civilian and humanitarian character of areas designated for refugees and the sensitization of the local population for their reception."
