“What fuels people trafficking is the lack of safe routes to get here by any other means” Kathy Evans, Chief Executive of Children England, says that loss of 116 child migrants housed in unregulated hotels is “child protection failure” Newsnight
More than 100 unaccompanied child migrants remain missing after disappearing from UK hotels over a 14-month period, data reveals.
Some 1,606 children who arrived alone between July 2021 and June 2022 were placed in hotel accommodation by the Home Office, according to its own figures. Rishan Tsegay, who arrived in the UK from Sudan on the back of a lorry aged 17 and has since been granted asylum, says she fears some of those missing children could end up in the hands of the traffickers who brought them into the country.
It said: "On average, unaccompanied children seeking asylum are moved to long-term care within 15 days of arriving in a hotel, but we know more needs to be done. The Local Government Association, which represents councils, says it is "working tirelessly to find suitable placements for unaccompanied children, with 597 placements made in the past six months".
