Epping Forest DC is to appeal a High Court injunction to stop the use of a hotel, which has been the focus of protests in the area, being used for asylum seeker accommodation.
It points out that this does not relate to an interim injunction, which the council had won in August to close the hotel in Epping and ensure the Home Office could not intervene. This had been overturned by the Court of Appeal and earlier this week the council was told by the Supreme Court that it was unable to challenge this decision.
