Asylum: Housing
(asked on 29th October 2026) - View Source
Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many inspections of asylum accommodation properties were carried out by her Department or by providers in 2025/26, and how many properties failed.
This question was answered on 3rd November 2026
Between 1 April 2025 and 31 March 2026, the Home Office carried out over 7,400 inspections, in addition to providers’ monthly property inspections. These inspections are rated through Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) covering safety, habitability and fitness for purpose. A potential KPI non-conformance does not constitute a failed property inspection.
