Asked by:

Answer
The Government is determined to restore order to the asylum system so that it operates swiftly, firmly and fairly. This includes our accommodation sites, as the Home Office clears the backlog, increases removals and continues to identify a range of options to minimise the use of hotels and ensure better use of public money.
All asylum claims will continue to be assessed on an individual basis, in line with published policies.
