Home Office ends £2bn contract with asylum-seeker hotel provider

THE Home Office is ending the contract for a major provider of asylum-seeker accommodation after a review raised concerns about the company’s performance and behaviour.
Stay Belvedere Hotels Ltd (SBHL) provided a quarter of the department’s accommodation across 51 hotels in England and Wales.
It also operated Napier Barracks in Kent, which houses people awaiting asylum decisions and is due to close in September.
