Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how much is spent on weekly running costs for Manston Processing Centre, (a) in total and (b) for heating.

The costs of operating the Manston Processing Centre sits across multiple commands and are attributed to a number of different budgets and funding streams. A costing exercise, commissioned in response to a similar request from the Chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee (HASC), is currently underway to capture this information. Once that exercise has been completed and the detail passed to HASC then this will be publicly available.
