Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how much money his Department has allocated for housing asylum seekers in (a) hotels and (b) other locations in 2024.
Costs are subject to change depending on numbers being accommodated within the asylum system. Accommodation costs are considered to be commercially confidential, therefore the Home Office does not publish this information. However, total expenditure on asylum is published in the Home Office Annual Report and Accounts, available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/ho-annual-reports-and-accounts(opens in a new tab).
