Our accommodation providers deliver induction briefings and information packs to all new arrivals. Asylum seekers are clearly advised of the expectations the Home Office and accommodation providers have for them to behave responsibly while they are accommodated in Home Office properties.

The Home Office expects the highest standards from its accommodation providers, and we have a robust governance framework in place to manage service delivery of the Asylum Accommodation Support Contracts (AASC).
