Asylum: Hotels

Asked by Joani ReidLabourHome OfficeTabled Answered 17 December 2024UIN 18720

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the average length of time is for asylum seekers to spend in the Bruce Hotel in East Kilbride.

Answered by Dame Angela Eagle

For the safety and security of residents and staff at its accommodation sites, the Home Office does not publish detail of each site in use.

However, data on the number of supported asylum seekers in accommodation, by local authority and accommodation type, can be found within the Asy_D11 tab for the most recent stats release: Immigration system statistics data tables - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk.)
