To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to raise my concern about the proposed development of Campsfield IRC. I object to this planning application and am of the view that there should be a public enquiry to assess whether this development is the right option for people in the UK. I am deeply concerned that the proposal would mean building on greenbelt land without any clear justification for the need for further expansion of the existing site. Greenbelt land is vital for the health of th... Read more

I object to the expansion of Campsfield detention centre on the basis of the following concerns: - The rationale for the expansion is given as a matter of national security. Detaining migrants, removing them from their families, and imposing detention conditions managed by a company that has already been found to be highly negligent and damaging to detainees in execution of their duties is irresponsible and does nothing to protect our national security. On the contrary, it generates harm to ... Read more
