Results per page 25 | 50 | 100I am a local resident and live near to the Haslar IRC. I am realistic enough to know that it is too late to halt the expansion of Haslar IRC site which I object to. I also believe that based on the past 3 years experience that the Home Office has a complete disregard for the views of the local residents. We have already endured over 3 years of disruption, noise, dust, dirt,parking issues, damage to local roads and lack of information. I strongly object to the planned height of the 4 new accomod...

I object to this new planning permission as it's a total change to the original application and we the residents. Have not been consulted on this for views and concerns think a public meeting with the Home Office

I wholeheartedly object to the expansion of IRC in Dolphin Way. I live close to this facility which has been closed for a number of years. Gosport is a deprived town as is its surrounding areas. This will do nothing to enhance Gosport but degrade it even more. I was informed by a Home Office representative, at the open forum a few months ago, that around 600 men, a large proportion of which are convicted criminals, will be housed here. As an elderly person living alone, I feel frightened for my ... Read more

Yes, I would like to attend a hearing. Increasing the capacity of the removal centre does not take into account the serious negative effect it will have on the properties that are adjacent to that centre, which is located in a residential area. The proposed revised height off the buildings will dwarf neighbouring properties. Residents will be overlooked in their homes and gardens, which will mean a total lack of privacy. The value of houses has already plummeted and they are becoming unsalea... Read more

This development not only plays with the safety of local residents (say what you want, these centres bring high crime including violent crime and rape), but has been brought about in the most disgustingly fascist way. Not allowing locals to have a say on planning permission just proves you were terrified they would say no. If this centre is so badly needed, might I suggest building it in Kensington or Chelsea? Maybe even downing street? Or is it only the rich that get a say? Once again Labour sh... Read more

I object to this proposal on the following grounds. Visual detriment & Scale: The introduction of three-storey accommodation blocks creates an overbearing physical presence that harms the local landscape and impacts on the rights of local homeowners and their enjoyment of their homes which will now be overlooked. The increase in the number of detainees from the original 130 to 600 will undoubtedly have a detrimental effect on the local area. This is a quiet residential area which will... Read more

I do not agree with the plan to expand upon this site. This is a beautiful area that people enjoy walking along the sea wall. It is over development of the site. The other buildings were existing so I don't object to that. I understand the need to accommodate these individuals but what security measures are going to be put in place to reassure the local residents? Why not hold a planning meeting where residents can attend to gauge the response and seek reassurance. Driving through this area a... Read more

Deeply disappointed that the Government has failed-to properly engage with local residents over significantly altered plans for the expansion. There needs to be more opportunity for local people to have their say, especially as the new buildings are taller and will have more impact on the local community. Property prices are already taking a dip and I’m very concerned about security and the amount of tax payers money being spent on this facility, it’s a disgrace.

This will bring unwanted adult males into the area and cause a risk to the female population

The proposal to adopt this plan to allow immigrants to use Haslar detention centre to hold these people is totally irresponsible. I don’t care what the home office has to say it will. Just bring nothing but trouble to Gosport and possibly criminal activity. Also residents living next door to this detention centre will find their property will depreciate in value which is unfair. As Caroline Dinage has said we all have been hood winked over the development of this site . A better proposal wou... Read more

The proposed accomodation blocks in phase 2 of the develop being 3 stories is significantly different to the original proposals as shared with residents at previous consultation information events. They will be higher than the original buildings of the previous IRC and are being built in an area which was not previously developed. The height of the proposed accomodation blocks I feel will be detrimental to residents whose properties are beside and opposite and will dominate the area.

This is unlawful and against all public consultations! This is NOT acceptable to anyone who lives in the area. You are destroying people’s lives, homes and security - why lie throughout thr whole process? Because you know it would have failed. This is a disgrace and a typical example of this government. Shame on all of you!!

This is outrageous. This will seriously affect the local community with the influx of migrants that will cause nothing but harm to a vibrant community. Groups of male migrants terrifying the locals would, in my opinion likely cause a vigilante response inciting violence across the board. The government could not make a worse decision.
