The Government has announced it will have stopped using 50 hotels to house asylum seekers by January.
The Government says two hotels just over the Nottinghamshire border will stop being used to house asylum seekers "very soon". A backlog in the processing of asylum cases and record net migration into the UK last year meant that asylum seekers were placed in hundreds of hotels across the country.
The Government has now announced that it will have stopped using 50 hotels across the country to house asylum seekers by January. Robert Jenrick, the Conservative MP for Newark and the Government's Immigration Minister, confirmed the news in the House of Commons on Tuesday .He said: "These hotels should be assets for their local communities... not housing illegal migrants at unsustainable costs to the taxpayer.
The minister replied: "I did make a promise a year ago when I took on this role that we would close hotels and I'm pleased to be able to deliver upon that today. We will be writing to all those who are part of the first tranche today or tomorrow and I'd be very happy to stay in touch with her if she isn't part of that tranche. But if she isn't, then we'll do everything we can to make sure that her hotels are exited very soon.
