Costs of Detention
Tracey Barnett made this Official Information request to Minister of Immigration
The request was partially successful.
From: Tracey Barnett
Dear Minister of Immigration,
Kindly provide the following information:
1. How much does it cost, per person, per six week period, to house and provide services for a quota refugee at Mangere Refugee Centre, Auckland?
2. What is the annual total budget for the Mangere Refugee Centre, including all services?
3. Seeing as asylum seekers do not receive the same services as quota refugees, how much does it cost to feed and house an asylum seeker at Mangere Refugee Centre, per person, based on your knowledge of its budget? [Note, you can choose the time frame; per week, per month, per year. Though my preference is per year so I may compare these costs internationally.]
4. Looking ahead, if the Immigration Amendment bill for Mass Arrivals is passed, how much is the government estimating it will cost to feed, accommodate and support an asylum seeker in a different 'mass arrival' facility for six months overall? [If a per person figure is available, that would be helpful.]
5. What is that facility's overall budget likely to be?
6. Where is that facility likely to be?
7. How many staff will be assigned and at what overall cost per year?
8. How much has the exercise to accommodate mass arrivals cost the government in time and services?
8. How many people have been involved in that exercise?
9. At what minimum number of arrivals will that facility be activated to house the new arrivals?
Yours faithfully,
Tracey Barnett
