Thomas Glen, depute chief executive, said: “Respecting the privacy and understanding the vulnerability of those coming to East Dunbartonshire is essential.
“Whilst it is not appropriate to welcome our refugee arrivals with a fanfare, there is still plenty the community can do to support and sustain their arrival and integration into our communities.”
