Asylum: Housing
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department has made an assessment of the potential merits of replacing the Asylum Accommodation and Support Contracts as part of the Asylum Support Accommodation Programme.
Answered by Alex Norris
Under the Asylum Support and Accommodation Programme (ASAP) now known as Future Asylum Contract Transformation (FACT) Project, a delivery model assessment was undertaken looking at the current Asylum contractual landscape alongside future business needs, this include the current Asylum Accommodation and Support Contracts (AASC) service due to the integration of these services alongside other core Asylum Business requirements.
As with all Public Sector contracts, re-procurement is required to replace any expiring contracts to ensure value for money solutions to support delivery of future Asylum initiatives.
