Answered Asked by Linda Fabiani SNP Lodged 18 Dec 2002

The question

To ask the Scottish Executive whether it has been consulted by the Home Office regarding the siting of accommodation centres in Scotland under the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 and, if so, what response it gave and whether the consultation related to the education of children of residents of such centres.

The answer

Answered by Margaret Curran on 7 Jan 2003 · 20 days after it was lodged, on time

No decision on the siting of accommodation centres in Scotland has yet been taken. The Scottish Executive has therefore not yet been consulted by the Home Office about location or education provision at such centres.
