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

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what recent assessment he made of the effectiveness of his Department's policies on reducing homelessness.

This Government is committed to reducing homelessness - between 2022 and 2025 we are investing in excess of £1 billion into the Homelessness Prevention Grant. Over 600,000 households have been prevented from becoming homeless or supported into settled accommodation since the introduction of the Homelessness Reduction Act, the most ambitious reform to homelessness legislation in decades.
