The International Protection Procurement Service (IPPS) had received an offer from this property, but this is no longer under consideration for international protection accommodation.

All offers of international protection accommodation are reviewed by the Department under a standardised appraisal procedure. Properties from all areas undergo the same transparent process, including the necessary compliance checks and examining a range of important factors.

Factors in the appraisal of international protection accommodation include the site suitability, the value for money it offers, planning matters and any works required to meet the required standards.

Consideration is also given to the location with regard to access to services, resident welfare, health and wellbeing, and the current level of need in the sector.
