Dear Planning Inspectorate, I am writing to object to the proposed expansion of Haslar Immigration Removal Centre. The application reference is CROWN/2026/0000005. I object because the proposal would expand Haslar into a 600-bed detention centre, adding up to 470 additional detention places before the refurbished 130-bed centre has even reopened or been tested in practice. I am especially concerned about flood risk, coastal safety, emergency evacuation and climate change. Haslar is a coastal ... Read more

No I do not wish to attend a hearing. I have been working in this sector for over three and a half years and I fully support 💯 % this plan for expansion of this detention centre. Locally six hotels have been used to house migrants arriving by boat and the huge numbers across many different sites locally has caused the local area to become a very challenging place to live, and work. Many receive different services in different hotels and fights do breakout if one group perceives another hotel ... Read more

Dear Planning Inspectorate, I am writing to object to the Home Office’s proposal to expand Haslar Immigration Removal Centre in Gosport. The application reference is CROWN/2026/0000005.

The current application seeks permission to add up to 470 more detention places, taking Haslar to a 600-bed detention centre. I am responding as someone part of a community... Read more

We as a community were told the buildings would not be erected any higher than the original. To be told this has changed without our knowledge is an absolute disgrace. I am completely opposed to this new development as it will spoil our beautiful town.

I strongly object to the “Phase 2” expansion of the Haslar Immigration Removal Centre proposed at Crown Development Application CROWN/2026/0000005. I was previously a serving Councillor on Gosport Borough Council and at the first public engagement event by the MoJ/Home Office, we were assured that the IRC operation would solely cater for male detainees whose asylum applications had been determined and rejected, and that all detainees would be repatriated directly from the HASLAR IRC. It is no... Read more

It's so wrong to build a 3rd floor extension on the buildings at hasler. It will destroy a nice area. Just for people who won't be in this Country long. They should just double up in rooms.

I do not agree with this. Not good for local communities. I think it will look awful and I’m concerned about security

continued... Noise pollution. Staff entering and leaving the site during shift changeovers will create a great deal of noise. 414 staff create a lot of noise by talking, slamming vehicle doors, vehicle engines, mobile phone conversations, car stereos, car alarms etc. shift chaneovers will take place between 7am to 8am and 7pm to 8pm (transport assessment document p25), so staff are predicted to arrive from 6.30am. The level of noise created by this shift changeover on a daily basis is NOT accept... Read more

Crown Development Application 0000005 I OBJECT wholeheartedly to the expansion of Haslar Immigration Removal Centre to increase capacity four-fold to 600 detainees. I do not think that you realise just how CLOSE our neighbouring homes are and how much this proposal will detrimentally affect our lives forever. The material reasons for my objection are as follows: 1. Access A new access point is proposed in Fort Road which was never historically an access point to the IRC site. When the Centre... Read more

I have no objection to this proposal. It's out of the way and as long as the people there are not mistreated it seems a constructive use of the area. Our MP owns a property nearby hence her sudden opposition.

I am appalled that this development is being pushed through for possibly 600 inmates when the town cannot cope currently with it's own infrastructure for medical, housing and educational needs. I have no objection to having a centre there but the sheer size and disruption of it all will cause to local residents is something that has not been adequately considered. I am also worried that the coastal path will be restricted and this path is currently important for public access to the beautiful ... Read more

This is a disgraceful use of this property with absolutely no consultation with local residents. I find that Govt. have to take full notice of local thinking and also of the local Council's thoughts and submissions !
