Undocumented Migrants: Housing
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will publish a constituency level breakdown of where all irregular migrants are being housed including accommodation type.
Answered by Dame Angela Eagle

The Government is determined to restore order to the asylum system so that it operates swiftly, firmly and fairly. This includes identifying a range of options to reduce the use of hotels over time and ensuring efficiency and value for money across all accommodation arrangements.
