Britain requires asylum seekers to repay benefits
The British government has introduced new rules for asylum seekers, requiring them to pay for their hotel accommodation invoices, and setting a debt limit of £10,000 (approximately $13,231) that must be settled before they are allowed to settle in the UK or return after deportation. The fees will be applied at a fixed rate regardless of the type of accommodation, aiming to reduce costs that exceeded two billion pounds last year, when the cost of housing an asylum seeker in a hotel was £144 per night compared to just £12 in the cheaper shared accommodation. These measures are part of the government's attempt to cut the costs of supporting migrants and are based on similar models in Denmark, with expectations that they will have a limited impact on the overall budget due to the high proportion of low-income asylum seekers.
