This Government recognises the misery that unauthorised encampments can cause and that is why we have delivered on our manifesto commitment to give the police the powers they need to tackle those people on unauthorised encampments who cause harm.<\/p>
Through the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act 2022, we introduced a new criminal offence for those who cause or are likely to cause significant damage, disruption and distress, without first requiring a police direction. This enables the police to take quicker and more effective enforcement action where significant harm is happening.<\/p>
The measures also extend the powers of the police to direct trespassers to leave land.<\/p>
How police use these powers is an operational matter for the Chief Constable of each local force. The Home Office liaise regularly with the National Police Chiefs Council regarding how these powers are being used.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4503", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Chris Philp"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Croydon South"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Chris Philp"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2023-06-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2023-06-01T10:06:50.08Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2023-05-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Anti-social Behaviour: Caravan Sites"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps her Department is taking to ensure that local police forces use their powers to (a) tackle anti-social behaviour on illegal traveller encampment sites and (b) prevent the creation of those illegal encampments.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4792", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Paul Bristow"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Peterborough"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Paul Bristow"} ], "uin" : "186572"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1607971", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Home Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1607971/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
Due to the continued pressures on the Asylum Estate, we are needing to use emergency accommodation hotels for a longer period that originally envisaged, and this has resulted in the conversion of this hotel to lo0nger term contingency accommodation.<\/p>
There is no plan to decant this site and by using this site as longer-term contingency accommodation, there should be more of a settled residency staying in the hotel until they are dispersed into longer term accommodation. Service users will be supported to registered with health services, access school places, engagement with other local services such as ESOL, engage NGOs for more long terms support (over and above that provided by Migrant Help), accessing local faith groups.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4320", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Robert Jenrick"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Newark"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Robert Jenrick"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2023-04-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2023-04-04T16:50:22.23Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2023-03-27", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Asylum: Temporary Accommodation"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will publish a timetable for the cessation of the use of the Great Northern Hotel in Peterborough as asylum accommodation.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4792", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Paul Bristow"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Peterborough"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Paul Bristow"} ], "uin" : "174457"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1608017", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Home Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1608017/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

While individuals are endangering lives making perilous journeys, every possible option must be considered to reduce the draw of the UK.<\/p>
We are in constant dialogue with a range of partners about how we can work together. We will not get drawn into speculation on potential options for offshoring of asylum processing or other outsourcing arrangements.<\/p>
