The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many asylum seekers accommodated in (a) hotels or (b) other residences were in that accommodation for longer than 12 months since 2022.

Answered by Alex Norris

The information requested is not currently available from published statistics, and the relevant data could only be collated and verified for the purpose of answering this question at disproportionate cost.

The latest published Immigration Statistics detail the number of asylum seekers accommodated in hotel and other residences can be found at Asylum and resettlement datasets - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).
