Asylum seeker barge plan would face legal challenge

Feb 16,2020 5:56 am

By Nick Eardley, chief political correspondent, and Oliver SlowBBC News

Ministers are facing the prospect of a legal challenge if they go ahead with plans to house asylum seekers on a barge off the Dorset coast.

The Home Office is reportedly looking to use the 222-room Bibby Stockholm for The Migrants under controversial plans aimed at reducing reliance on hotels.

The vessel could be docked.

Local Conservative MP Richard Drax " all legal routes" were being looked at to try and stop The Proposal .

The government says More Than £6m A Day is spent on hotels for migrants. But charities say military bases and boats are " wholly inadequate places" to house People fleeing war and persecution.

The three-storey Bibby Stockholm - which can house More Than 500 People - has been refurbished since it was criticised as an " oppressive environment" when the Dutch government used it for asylum seekers.

The vessel now has en-suite rooms, a TV and Games Room and a gym,

Details about any deal to use the barge have Not Yet been confirmed, but a Home Office spokesperson said: " The pressure on The Asylum system has continued to grow and requires us to look at a range of accommodation options which offer better value for money for taxpayers than hotels. "

Mr Drax, whose constituency includes Portland, has described the use of boats as " totally and utterly out of the question" and will exacerbate existing problems "10-fold".

Speaking to BBC's Laura Kuenssberg on Sunday, Home Secretary Suella Braverman refused to confirm The Deal , saying her office was " looking at all sorts of lands, sites and vessels".

As part of efforts to tackle the issue, last week Immigration Minister Robert Jenrick

He told The Commons that " The Sheer number of small boats have overwhelmed The Asylum system" adding the government would " not elevate the wellbeing of illegal migrants above The British People ".

" Accommodation for migrants should meet Essential Living needs and Nothing More , because we cannot risk becoming a magnet for the millions of People who are displaced and seeking better economic prospects, " He Said .

The plans were criticised by Labour, with shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper saying The Announcement was an " admission of failure".

" They've got this huge backlog of asylum decisions, so much so that 98% of Last Year 's small boats arrivals simply haven't even been decided or processed, " She Said .
