Details

The proposed establishment of large sites and vessels (‘pathfinders’) accommodating non-detained asylum seekers may lead to additional pressures on police forces responsible for the areas in which they are situated. The Home Office is keen to support forces to manage the potential impacts of the sites on business as usual demand.

This guidance outlines the process for applying for additional support.
