The real solution lies in substantially expanding processing capacity to meet the scale of the challenge we face. The amendment in my name seeks to achieve this by streamlining the asylum application process through the establishment of what we are calling “Nightingale” processing centres—temporary, but purpose-built, facilities designed to increase capacity, improve efficiency and ensure that applications are handled swiftly and fairly. These centres would allow for better use of resources, reduce administrative bottlenecks and relieve the pressure currently placed on overstretched local authorities and accommodation providers.
