Many constituents have rightly raised concerns about a lack of formal cancellation regarding the previously proposed asylum reception centre in Linton-on-Ouse. While the Defence Secretary announced the plans were scrapped back in July, I have yet to receive an official confirmation, nor any suggestion on what the site may now be used for.
This lack of clarity naturally leaves residents in Linton-on-Ouse and the surrounding area extremely concerned. I have therefore written the attached letter to the Home Secretary and Defence Secretary to request a formal response. I will press for a swift response and update constituents as soon as I have more information.
