Planning and Infrastructure BillContribution
Homelessness is far too high, and this Government have committed to delivering long-term solutions. We are developing a cross-government strategy to get back on track to end all forms of homelessness. We continue to engage with the youth homelessness sector to ensure that the strategy meets the needs of young people. The funding for homelessness services, which was outlined previously, also includes continued funding for 650 units for young people at risk of homelessness or rough sleeping, alongside accompanying support services, through the single homelessness accommodation programme. My own area has benefited from that fund as it delivered the kind of accommodation that the noble Baroness referred to.
