Monday 24th February 2025

Asked by: Emily Darlington (Labour - Milton Keynes Central)

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what progress she has made on reducing the cost of housing refugees using Official Development Assistance.

Answered by Angela Eagle - Minister of State (Home Office)

Let me state again that the Government is committed to reducing the costs of asylum accommodation, including ending the use of hotels over time. As we make progress on those objectives, it will reduce the amount of UK Official Development Assistance that needs to be used to house asylum refugees in this country.
