Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what modes of transport are used to transfer asylum seekers between accommodation sites within the UK; and what expenditure was incurred on (a) air transport, (b) rail transport, (c) coach transport, (d) taxi transport, and (e) other transport in each year since 2019.

We do not report and hold data at this granularity and would only be obtainable at disproportionate cost. The Home Office publishes information on asylum expenditure in the Home Office annual report and accounts: 2024 to 2025 - GOV.UK - GOV.UK (opens in a new tab).
