Eagle stated that due to the backlog of asylum claims built under the previous government, the current administration has no choice but to use hotel accommodations temporarily.
The Home Office minister emphasized, "This is not a permanent solution. It is a necessary but temporary step to ensure the system doesn't descend into chaos amid overwhelming asylum cases."
Eagle mentioned the backlog of nearly 120,000 unprocessed asylum claims, highlighting the urgent need for accommodation amidst a record influx of asylum seekers.
The home secretary's immediate actions aim to save an estimated 4 billion for taxpayers while addressing the asylum processing crisis inherited from the previous government.
