Brook House immigration removal centre reports

This page lists the reports for Brook House IRC from 2010 until present. Brook House is an immigration removal centre located near Gatwick airport and operated by G4S. Holding only adult male detainees, it has just under 450 available places.

At this unannounced inspection we found that there had been considerable changes to the population since we last visited. The throughput of detainees had increased significantly with the average length of stay down to about a month. There were also far fewer ex-prisoners.

They now comprised only a small minority within the population, as most former prisoner detainees were held inappropriately in prisons.
