To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Hanson of Flint on 17 February (HL14372), what the move-on process will be for all groups of newly recognised refugees leaving asylum accommodation between the end of the current pilot on 28 February and the introduction of a new process.

Home Office Ministers have decided to set the notice period for all individuals granted leave exiting the asylum accommodation estate at 42 days, from the point they are notified of a positive asylum decision.
This policy will apply to individuals granted leave on or after 9 March 2026. The policy will not apply to individuals who are already within the notice period and those for whom support has already been discontinued.
The 56‑day pilot concluded on 8 March 2026.
