We demand the Government to require that all asylum accommodation meets the Decent Homes Standard, as we are concerned many asylum seekers are housed in substandard, unsafe and inhumane conditions. Unlike social housing, not all asylum accommodation is legally required to meet this standard.

Extend Awaab's Law and the Decent Homes Standard to all temporary accommodation
Awaab's Law is one of the most significant pieces of legislation to come into force to tackle damp and mould in housing. We want the government to implement the extension of the Decent Homes Standard (DHS) and Awaab’s law to all temporary accommodation as soon as possible.
Ensure Home Office needs planning permission for all hotel asylum accommodation
Amend the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 and the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 so the Home Office must always seek local planning permission before using any hotels to house asylum seekers, ensuring local councils and communities are consulted.
Give British homeless same legal protection from destitution as asylum seekers
Give homeless UK citizens, including veterans, the same legal right to housing and financial support as asylum seekers. No one should be left destitute in their own country. Legal protections would help vulnerable citizens rebuild their lives with dignity.
Require landlords to sell vacant properties to house homeless and refugees
With over 700,000 empty homes, 170,000 vacant commercial properties, and around 350,000 homeless people, taxpayers shouldn’t bear the housing burden. Empty properties could be sold to investors committed to easing homelessness for a minimum of two years post-purchase.
Stop asylum seekers being given housing in military establishments
To house these people that are coming over to the United Kingdom in military establishments is not appropriate, when so many ex Armed forces personal are living rough on their own streets
