The London Borough of Hounslow is currently consulting on a review of its local plan, with the consultation running up to 24 September. The Plan includes changes which would facilitate the construction of a huge new immigration detention centre on a green belt site next to Heathrow Airport.
Heathrow Airport Limited (HAL) have been consulting with Hounslow Council to find a replacement site for the current Heathrow immigration detention centres, which are due to be demolished to build the third runway. Two of their preferred sites are covered in the new Local Plan. The land is currently part of the Green Belt, and it is used by locals as a public open green space and is an important site for nature. 
Today (Friday 13 September) we submitted our response to the consultation.
We object in the strongest terms to the proposed expansion of Heathrow Airport and the use of this land to build a huge new detention centre.
