Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans her Department has to open a short-term immigration holding facility for men and women at Morton Hall in Lincolnshire.
The immigration removal estate is kept under ongoing review, to ensure that the Home Office has sufficient capacity and provides value for money.
The Home Office is developing plans for a new small residential short-term holding facility on part of the site of the current Morton Hall immigration removal centre, which will open later this year.
