Detention Centres: Bexhill-on-Sea
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans she has for the Northeye detention centre in Bexhill.
Answered by Dame Angela Eagle
We have got to work straight away on fixing the asylum system and protecting our border.
That has already included a surge in capacity on returning failed asylum seekers, as demonstrated by last week’s flight to Vietnamand Timor-Leste. I will be considering options and will take a view on the future use of the Northeye site in due course.
