Written Question
Sleeping Rough
Friday 16th January 2026

Asked by: Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth (Conservative - Life peer)

Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the number of rough sleepers in (1) London, and (2) each other region in England and Wales.

Answered by Baroness Taylor of Stevenage - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

The government inherited a homelessness crisis - the number of people sleeping rough is far too high. The latest published management information estimated that 2,195 people slept rough across the month in London in September 2025 and 9,292 people slept rough across the month in England. Housing and homelessness is devolved, but the government publishes data on the number of people sleeping rough in England, including regional breakdowns, here.

Written Question
Sleeping Rough
Wednesday 14th January 2026

Asked by: Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth (Conservative - Life peer)

Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the actions necessary to return the number of people sleeping rough to the level achieved during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Answered by Baroness Taylor of Stevenage - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

This government’s long-term vision is to end homelessness and rough sleeping and we are focused on delivering long-term solutions to prevent people from sleeping rough in the first place. Our National Plan to End Homelessness sets out the actions we will take to halve long-term rough sleeping by the end of this Parliament including investing £15 million in our Long-Term Rough Sleeping Innovation Programme to enable councils with the greatest pressures to deliver more personalised and comprehensive support for people with complex needs.
