The Department's Benefit Expenditure and Caseload outturn and forecast tables can be found in the ‘Housing Benefits’ sheet here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/benefit-expenditure-and-caseload-tables-2026.

Equivalent estimates are not available for earlier years due to historical data quality issues in the recording of supported accommodation cases.
