Refugees Minister Lord Harrington has declined to comment on government plans to send some asylum seekers to Rwanda.
Asked by the BBC if he thought the scheme was a good idea, he said it was not his responsibility.
The minister - who was appointed to lead efforts to help Ukrainian refugees - said last week there was "no possibility" of sending them to Africa.
Under the scheme, single men who arrive in the UK and claim asylum will be relocated to Rwanda.
In an interview with LBC last week, Lord Harrington said no refugees had been sent to Rwanda and added: "If it's happening in the Home Office on the same corridor that I'm in they haven't told me about it."
On Thursday, he told the BBC that "hundreds of thousands" of people were fleeing Ukraine and none of them would be going to Rwanda.
