Home Office told to stop work at former RAF base set to house asylum seekers

  • The Home Office has been ordered to halt the conversion of a former military base into an accommodation site for asylum seekers due to concerns of breaching planning conditions. Local leaders fear this move will jeopardize a £300m deal to turn the base into a heritage site.
  • The council, as the local planning authority, issued temporary stop notices and expressed disappointment that the Home Office failed to secure appropriate planning permission or assess the impact of their proposals. Use of the site for asylum accommodation puts the £300m investment proposal at risk.
  • The breach of planning control occurred by changing the use of the site and siting temporary accommodation for asylum seekers. The council raised concerns about the work and issued temporary stop notices.
