Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of provision in the supported housing sector in (a) Coventry South constituency and (b) nationally.

We have recently completed a joint DWP/DCLG consultation on the supported housing model with commissioners and providers, developers and investors, residents and those who represent their views. The new model proposed in our consultation will enable local authorities to assess their adequacy of provision by utilising their local knowledge to drive transparency, quality and value for money from their service providers.
