answer text <p>There would be a need to check the c.20,300 individual records of children released since 2010 to obtain their accommodation status. We estimate that it would take around five minutes to check each record, which equates to a cost of approximately £42,000. This does not include the time required to engage with Local Authorities where necessary.</p> more like this
