Asylum
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what recent assessment has been made of the potential merits of co-locating asylum casework, legal services, healthcare provision and integration support within centralised reception hubs.
Answered by Alex Norris
Current reforms prioritise restoring order and control to the asylum system, including ending the use of hotels, enhancing fairness, and improving efficiency, rather than moving to a single end-to-end co-located reception hub model.
We are committed to ensuring that asylum reforms are considered carefully so that they support creation of a system which is both fair and sustainable. As with all significant policy changes, the impacts will be subject to assessment.
