Tackling shortages in the haulage and logistics sector Lincoln
East Lindsey District Council would consider taking legal action over the use of caravan parks to house asylum seekers, the leader has confirmed.
ELDC on Thursday sent a letter to the Home Office warning that it was considering a Judicial Review following the success of a similar bid by Great Yarmouth Borough Council. Alongside disused military bases, the government has recently suggested that it could look at caravan parks. “Especially in East Lindsey where we have an issue about which caravan sites could be used anyway because of flood risk. There’s a closed season when these sites have to be emptied so it wouldn’t be a long-term solution by any means and one that I wouldn’t really want to see pursued by the government.”Councillor Leyland said he had received a number of contacts who had reported cancelled bookings and was aware of wider anecdotal evidence of similar situations.
“It’s a really positive step that it does demonstrate that locally elected politicians are able to character defend the character of the places that they represent.”Asked if there were any alternative locations in his constituency that could be used, he said “no”.
