United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 29 June 2026
The Home Office should have a legal duty of care to communities where asylum accommodation is provided. This should include assessing local impacts, consulting residents and councils, and ensuring services, infrastructure and public safety are properly considered before placements are made. The Home Office can place large numbers of asylum seekers into communities without any legal duty to assess the impact on local residents. We believe it should be required to carry out community impact assessments, consult local authorities and residents, consider pressures on public services, and publish mitigation plans before accommodation is approved. This would improve transparency, accountability and public confidence.
United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 29 June 2026
Create a Home Office statutory duty of care for communities hosting asylum seekers and asylum accommodation. The Home Office has a statutory duty of care toward asylum seekers, but no equivalent duty toward local residents affected by asylum accommodation decisions. A statutory duty of care to local communities could require the Home Office to carry out genuine & early consultation with local authorities & residents & assess community impacts, including safety, cohesion & local resources. A statutory duty of care could improve transparency & accountability in placement decisions; support both asylum seekers & the communities they join; ensure community consultation is not reduced to a procedural formality & that residents’ wellbeing is properly considered in all accommodation decisions.
United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 29 June 2026
We call on the Government to cancel plans to introduce new capped safe and legal humanitarian routes and community-sponsorship asylum schemes to protect public services, secure our borders from illegal arrivals, and respect the democratic mandate. Proposed plans to expand the refugee framework via community-sponsored legal routes lack a public mandate and risk putting unsustainable pressure on overstretched local public services, housing infrastructure, and council budgets. Rather than opening new avenues for migration, resources must be focused entirely on securing UK borders, tackling illegal crossings, and restoring confidence. Parliament must reject these expansions, protect domestic infrastructure, and respect the democratic will.
