Asylum: MOD Bicester
Asked by: Calum Miller (Liberal Democrat - Bicester and Woodstock)
Thursday 16th July 2026

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of proposals to accommodate asylum seekers at MoD Bicester on access to and use of nearby community facilities, including those used by Five Acres Primary School and junior and youth football teams at Launton Football Club.

Answered by Alex Norris - Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice

No decision has been made in respect of the use of MoD Bicester for asylum accommodation. Suitability assessments are ongoing and will consider a range of factors including safety, security, operational deliverability, planning requirements, and the impact on local services and communities.

The Home Office is engaging with local authorities, emergency services, health partners and other stakeholders as proposals develop and will continue to engage with relevant local partners should plans be progressed.

MOD Bicester: Roads
Asked by: Calum Miller (Liberal Democrat - Bicester and Woodstock)
Thursday 16th July 2026

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department was consulted by the Home Office on the potential road safety implications of proposals to accommodate asylum seekers at MoD Bicester, including impacts on the B4011 and the use of that route by high-sided vehicles seeking to avoid the height-restricted railway bridge on the A41.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Work and Pensions)

The Department for Transport has not been consulted by the Home Office on the potential road safety implications of proposals to accommodate asylum seekers at MoD Bicester.

Local traffic management, including consideration of impacts on local roads such as the B4011, is a matter for the relevant local highway authority, Oxfordshire County Council. It would be for the Home Office, as the lead department for the proposals, to engage with the appropriate local authorities and other relevant bodies as necessary.

MOD Bicester: Asylum
Asked by: Calum Miller (Liberal Democrat - Bicester and Woodstock)
Wednesday 15th July 2026

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessments, including surveys, inspections and due diligence exercises, have been undertaken at Site A at MoD Bicester in connection with its proposed use as asylum accommodation.

Answered by Alex Norris - Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice

No final decision has been made regarding the use of Site A at MoD Bicester for asylum accommodation. The site remains subject to ongoing feasibility, planning, design, assurance and governance processes. The Home Office routinely undertakes due diligence when considering potential asylum accommodation sites, including assessments of suitability, deliverability, safety, security, planning considerations and impacts on local services and communities.

As part of this work, a range of surveys, inspections and technical assessments are undertaken as appropriate to inform decision-making. Feasibility work and initial surveys have been progressing as part of the assessment of the site. The Home Office first informed MOD of a proposal to potentially use MOD Bicester for Asylum Accommodation in November 2025.

The Home Office engages with relevant Government departments, local authorities, emergency services, health partners and other statutory stakeholders where appropriate as proposals develop. Operational Working Groups and stakeholder engagement activity have already taken place with local partners to support consideration of the proposal.

Throughout the development of potential accommodation sites, information is managed in accordance with normal Government requirements, including obligations relating to security, commercial sensitivity, policy development and procurement activity where applicable.

The Home Office keeps its asylum accommodation estate under regular review and works across Government to identify potential accommodation options. Consideration of individual sites forms part of that ongoing process.
