A Bill to make provision for asylum seekers to challenge the proportionality of a proposed eviction from accommodation before an independent court or tribunal; to establish asylum seeker accommodation eviction procedures for public authorities; and for connected purposes.
House of Commons
12 March 2021
The bill would allow asylum seekers to challenge the proportionality of proposed evictions from the accommodation they are living in by bringing the matter to an independent court or tribunal. It would also set out formal eviction procedures that public authorities must follow when dealing with asylum seeker accommodation, and cover related purposes. In short, it creates a right to challenge evictions and sets out the processes authorities must follow.
The bill is currently at the second reading in the House of Commons, which is the early stage of debate. If it progresses, it would move to committee stage for detailed scrutiny.
