A look ahead at the key events leading the news agenda next week, from the team at Foresight News.

The final report in the Brook House Immigration Removal Centre inquiry is published on Tuesday (September 19). The plight of detainees at Brook House was brought to light by a Panorama investigation in 2017 that showed asylum seekers subjected to physical and verbal abuse from staff. With similar facilities being used to house asylum seekers now, focus will be placed on whether the Home Office has learned any lessons from Brook House after the department was accused of putting “cost-cutting” and “convenience” ahead of detainee welfare.

On Wednesday (September 20), King Charles and Queen Camilla begin a three-day state visit to France, which was postponed in March amid protests over President Emmanuel Macron’s proposed pension reforms. The trip will see their royal highnesses travel to Paris and Bordeaux, with a busy agenda including a state banquet at Versailles, a bilateral with Macron, and environmental engagements including a business sustainability reception and a visit to a climate monitoring site. The real highlight, however, will be the monarch’s address to the French Senate, a privilege not even granted to his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II.
