What proportion of the £500 million hardship fund for local authorities is available to support residents that have leave to remain in the UK with no recourse to public funds conditions.
Simon Clarke
Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government)

Over a quarter of councils intend to use any surplus funding to offer additional discretionary support, and may choose to make this accessible to people with no recourse to public funds.
