THE government fines security giant G4S more money when migrants escape from its Brook House detention centre than when they die in its care, a new report has revealed.
Escapes cost the company £30,000, but deaths are valued at a fraction of that figure. There is only a £10,000 fine for suicides “involving any failure by G4S to follow procedures” and a £716 penalty for non-fatal self-harm.
The figures were published by the National Audit Office (NAO) today as part of its investigation into the G4S-run Brook House detention centre near Gatwick.
