Migration and Asylum

Asked for a comment on reports suggesting that the Home Office was somehow deploying resources disproportionately the PMS said that a lot of questions were asked – often by journalists – about migration and asylum and Ministers had to have answers to those questions. People were there to provide answers to those questions. Asked if the Government had made any representations to the French Government about a new “al fresco” camp the PMS said that there was no camp as such. Sangatte had been an official asylum centre but since the Home Secretary had secured its closure there had been a number of people sleeping rough in the area, but this was no new Sangatte. We continued to work with the French Government to enforce the rules and any idea that there was a new camp was inaccurate.
