The UK wants to stop using hotels for asylum seekers by 2029 and use bigger places like old air bases to save money and improve things.

Some people worry living in big places like Wethersfield air base is bad for health. Locals say these places feel like prisons.
The government will work with councils to make sure new homes for asylum seekers are safe. They may use old student buildings and empty places.
The Home Office wants to move 14,000 people to save money. If not enough is saved, they might need more help from the government.
Fewer people are in hotels now, but more arrive by small boats. The government wants to make it faster and safer for everyone.
