The Home Office contract requires G4S to operate, manage and maintain Brook House immigration removal centre. As at April 2019 the contract provided for 448 beds, of which about half were in use. The contract allows for a deduction for each failure identified, rather than setting a required level of performance, some level of deduction for poor performance is almost inevitable. Deductions for under performance have been relatively small (under 1.5% of the fee), although penalties are incurred almost every month and have increased slightly over time.
