## Key points

- Rayner grants conditional planning permission for MoD Bicester.
- The Home Office says further decisions and consents are required.
- Local opposition and political criticism continue.

## Summary

The new development is that Angela Rayner has granted conditional planning permission for the Home Office to advance plans to use MoD Bicester for asylum accommodation. The decision moves the proposal forward, but does not confirm that the site will be used.

The site could house more than 1,200 people for at least 10 years, near Piddington, a village of about 350 residents. The Home Office says further assessments and consents are needed and cites a government aim to distribute accommodation more fairly; Conservative politicians have condemned the decision, while 285 of 312 residents backed a symbolic vote for Piddington to leave the UK.
