<p>Since the establishment of the Asylum Accommodation and Support Transformation
Project in the autumn of 2016, there has been extensive consideration of lessons learnt
from the existing contracts, stakeholder feedback and external review documents, including
the fifty fourth report from the Public Accounts Committee.</p><p>The new contracts
include over 400 substantive changes that will provide a more accessible and easy
to navigate system which ensures the safety, security and welfare of service users
and their host communities. These changes will include a longer mobilisation and transition
period; improved data quality and sharing with providers and a more robust contract
compliance regime to improve accommodation standards.</p>
