Written Question
Temporary Accommodation: Young People
Wednesday 10th December 2025

Asked by: Richard Quigley (Labour - Isle of Wight West)

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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what steps he is taking to support local authorities in scaling up the provision of stepping stone homes for young people at risk of homelessness.

Answered by Alison McGovern - Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government)

My Department continues to engage with stakeholders in the homelessness sector to support the development of schemes and policies to tackle homelessness, including stepping stone accommodation.

The National Planning Policy Framework makes clear that it is for local authorities to assess the size, types and tenure of housing needed for different groups, including those who require affordable housing, and reflect this in their planning policies.
