Anti-social Behaviour: Undocumented Migrants
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made on levels of crime and anti-social behaviour in areas where irregular migrants are housed within communities.
Answered by Alex Norris
Allegations of criminal activity are taken seriously and are matters for the police, who are responsible for recording, investigating, and progressing criminal reports.
Home Office accommodation providers and operational staff work closely with local police forces to share relevant safeguarding information and to manage risks within the asylum accommodation estate. Where incidents occur, established processes ensure that appropriate action is taken to tackle crime and anti-social behaviour and additional support is deployed where necessary.
