Homeless households

The Government is failing to tackle homelessness according to a cross-party Housing, Communities and Local Government (HCLG) Committee which had issued a set of recommendations in April, as on their website here.

The committee criticised in their latest report the response they received from the Government on 29th May. Florence Eshalomi MP, chair of the committee said “It is disappointing the Government is willing only to commit to ‘later this year’ for publication of their strategy. The Committee’s recommendation for the Government to provide an update on the work of the Inter-Ministerial Group on Homelessness and Rough Sleeping has also been rejected.”
