The British government has announced it will house asylum seekers in military facilities in a bid to end the use of hotels. The decision comes after the cost of hotel accommodations ran into the billions and led to increasing protests in affected communities. Planned accommodation at Cameron Barracks in Inverness and Crowborough Army Training Camp in East Sussex is due to begin by the end of next month.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has ordered the Home Office and Defense Department to speed up the search for suitable military sites. The aim is to reduce the burden on communities and reduce the costs of accommodating asylum seekers. About 32,000 asylum seekers are currently being accommodated in hotels, down from a peak of over 56,000 in 2023.
The government has promised to close all asylum hotels and find alternative accommodation that meets health and safety standards. In addition to military facilities, industrial sites and temporary accommodation are also being considered. These measures are intended not only to reduce costs, but also to make it easier for asylum seekers to integrate into society.
An Interior Committee report criticized previous contracts and implementation of accommodation policy as flawed, leading to an over-reliance on hotels. The cost of accommodating asylum seekers has risen to over £15 billion. Sir Keir Starmer expressed frustration at the situation and stressed the need to correct the mistakes of the previous government.
