Home secretary orders urgent review into use of taxis for asylum seekers
The Secretary of the Interior ordered an urgent examination of the use and cost of ferry taxis between hotels and medical appointments.
Shabana Mahmood’s call was pursuing an investigation into the life within shelter hotels, which was sent to an immigrant GP appointment at a 250 -mile journey to a house office 600 pounds.
In other cases, when immigrants move between hotels, hundreds of miles of the country are transported through taxi.
However, it is not known that the home office of the home office goes to the appointments every year and spends it between appointments and hotels.
Housing Minister Matthew Pennycook asked a question about the revelation, which is a part of a BBC investigation in shelter hotels: “There are no figures of the house office, I think, I don’t want to get into the characteristics of this case, but very, in this case it is very controversial that it is very much.”
A spokesman for the Ministry of Interior: “The Minister of the Interior asked the department to look for the use of taxis urgently to transfer asylum seekers.”
The BBC’s investigation found immigrants cooking in hotel rooms under dangerous conditions, and electric quarries were established in shower and fire alarms.
And widespread illegal work, immigrants agreed to take business in the dark economy for a short time to send money to their families and pay human smugglers.
The anger used the government’s use of the hotel to host asylum seekers, the charity and the refugee Council became “a glare point for community tensions and billions of costs for the taxpayer”.
Critics also warned the immigrants about the limb of limbs, while protesters asked the asylum seekers to host their houses.
However, until the investigation of the BBC, the extent to which taxis financed by the taxpayer were trusted to carry immigrants throughout the country were known.
The conservatives accused their labor for ışma writing an empty check for illegal migration ”.
The worker promised to end the use of shelter hotels until 2029, and Rachel Reeves promises that the movement will save £ 1 billion per year.
However, on Tuesday, Mr. Pennycook could not guarantee that the target would be met, and he insisted that the party was “stable için only to reach him.
The former senior officer at the Ministry of Interior warned the ministers on the target and said that “ups and downs” could throw it off the road.
