The UK government faces the difficult decision of raiding £900 million from overseas aid programs to support asylum seeker costs domestically, indicating a budgetary crisis.
The analysis from the Center for Global Development reveals that if Treasury funding does not increase, the expenditures for asylum seekers will consume over 25% of this year’s overseas aid.
Current British spending on hosting asylum seekers far surpasses other wealthy nations, with a staggering £20,000 spent per person, highlighting inefficiencies in the system.
Concerns are raised regarding the management of housing contracts for asylum seekers, prompting calls for a forensic review to ensure efficient allocation of resources.
