Migrant Help: Standards

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 12 September 2023 on Migrant Help: Standards, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of an increase in the headcount for Migrant Help on the service standards they provide; what rectification actions are still outstanding; what progress Migrant Help have made on improving standards to the level set out in their contract; and if she will make a statement.

Answer

The Home Office continues to work with Migrant Help in line with their contract to ensure that they take all rectification actions to bring about improvements. Migrant Help have increased their headcount to respond to the significant increase in demand for their services which is due to increased volumes of those destitute asylum seekers requiring accommodation.
