Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will (a) provide details of and (b) publish any agreement his Department has reached with the Home Office to enable the site at Linton-on-Ouse to be used as asylum accommodation.

The Home Office will assume occupation of RAF Linton-on-Ouse under a Memorandum of Transfer of Occupation (MOTO) which is a commonly used method of making estate owned by one Department available to another. There are currently no plans to publish this MOTO once finalised.
