Clause 17 - Homelessness reviews
Homes Bill
10:30 am
Mr Don Foster (Bath, Liberal Democrat)
Of course I have seen that section. That is the section for the provision of data to help the authority develop its homelessness strategy. The issue that we are dealing with here is a range of advice, not only to help those who are homeless, but to help prevent homelessness. That is why I referred to the box headed:
``Review of activities which help prevent homelessness''
which specifically refers to ``advice services''. My point is that we need much greater guidance for local authorities about how they go about that, together with some examples of good practice.
