Highlights
  • Epping District Council won an interim High Court injunction to stop migrants from being accommodated at The Bell Hotel, forcing a housing halt pending permission checks.
  • The government aims to end hotel housing by 2029 as counts of asylum seekers in hotels fall from a 2023 peak to under 210 today.
  • Dispersed accommodation, placing asylum seekers in ordinary flats and houses, is cited as a key alternative to hotel housing, though it may raise private rents.
