<p>This government does not want to continue the use of hotels for a day longer than
necessary. We are as frustrated as the public are at the cost to the taxpayer.</p><p>Our
strategy is to limit hotels wherever possible by increasing dispersal accommodation
agreed with local authorities and by making use of large sites. We are working with
the MoD to make use of disused military sites.</p><p>Migrants will be housed in decent,
but not luxurious accommodation, that does not create a pull factor to the UK.</p><p>The
Government can’t build it’s way out of this challenge, nor can the UK taxpayer afford
to do so. The only sustainable answer is to deter individuals from making this dangerous,
unnecessary and illegal journey, as we will be doing through our Illegal Migration
Bill.</p>
