Asylum: Havering
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department has commissioned the use of hotel accommodation in the London Borough of Havering for the purpose of housing asylum seekers since 10 October 2024.
Answered by Dame Angela Eagle
No new hotels have been commissioned to accommodate asylum seekers in the London Borough of Havering since 10 October 2024.
When a hotel has been identified for use as contingency accommodation, Home Office officials will write to the local authority Chief Executive and the constituency MP to inform them of plans to accommodate asylum seekers there.
