Asylum: Salisbury

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether any sites in Salisbury constituency have been identified for the temporary housing of asylum seekers.

Answer

Successive years of record numbers crossing the channel has placed our immigration system under substantial pressure. To meet our statutory obligation, we ask our accommodation providers to source accommodation in all areas.

When a site becomes available and meets the requirements of our accommodation standards, we follow our engagement process and notify the local MP as well as local authority officials in advance of using the location.
