A Reform-run council is launching legal action to close three migrant hotels, the Daily Mail can reveal.
West Northamptonshire Council said that by accommodating asylum seekers, the three sites may have breached planning rules.
It is issuing Planning Contravention Notices to the owners of the Ibis in Crick, the Holiday Inn in Flore and MK Hotel in Deanshanger - all in Northamptonshire.
The council will then decide whether enforcement action is required, with the hotel owners given 21 days to respond.
Reform believes its approach is more likely to stop the sites being used as migrant hotels than Epping Forest District Council’s effort.
