For several years, record numbers of people cross the Channel in small boats, and this surge has placed the Home Office’s asylum support infrastructure and accommodation services under immense pressure. <ins class="ministerial">In order to meet our statutory obligations to accommodate asylum seekers who would otherwise be destitute, we have been forced to temporarily house asylum seekers in hotels.</ins> The use of hotels is a short term solution and we are working hard with Local Authorities and our accommodation providers to find more appropriate accommodation.We continue to work collaboratively with Local Authorities through the establishment of multi-agency forums to understand and address operational impacts on local areas. These regular forums include all key stakeholders and have been developed to mitigate and assure the on-going services provision within a local area.
