Asylum: Housing
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what was the cost of asylum properties procured for dispersed accommodation in (a) England, (b) Greater Manchester and (c) Oldham for each financial year from 2015/16 to date.
Answered by Alex Norris
The Home Office does not hold financial data in the format required to answer the specifics in the question. However total asylum costs including accommodation are published in the Home Office’s Annual Report and Accounts.
Please refer to page 75 (page 83 on the pdf reader) of 2024-25 Annual Report for the most recent published data.
