Labour — Bethnal Green and Stepney

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 July 2025

Debate

Homelessness Prevention

Contribution

It is important that migrants coming to the UK should be able to maintain and accommodate themselves without recourse to public funds. We encourage councils to exhaust all options when working with people with restricted eligibility for public funds. The funding for the rough sleeping prevention and recovery grant can be used to help anyone, provided actions are within the law.
