	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/09/2019 answer text <p>Our consultation on <em>Overcoming the barriers to longer tenancies</em> sought views on the potential benefits of longer tenancies in the private rented sector. A number of people responded that increased security would improve tenants’ mental health and well-being. In particular, respondents mentioned that fewer house moves could help tenants have better access to local amenities, such as schools and GP clinics, and feel more integrated into their communities.</p><p>Earlier this year, the Government announced its commitment to improve security for renters, and intends to introduce a new, fairer deal for both tenants and landlords.</p><p>As part of this new deal, we will put an end to ‘no-fault’ evictions by repealing section 21 of the Housing Act 1988. Under the new framework, a tenant cannot be evicted from their home without good reason, providing tenants with more stability, and enabling them to put down roots and plan for the future.</p><p>On the 21<sup>st</sup> July we launched a 12 week consultation on the details of our proposals. The Government will collaborate with and listen to tenants, landlords and others in the sector to develop a more effective system that works for everybody.</p> answering member constituency Tatton answering member printed Esther McVey question first answered 04/09/2019 12:46:25 answering member 4084 label Biography information for Esther McVey

The meetings were all held either at the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, 2 Marsham Street, London, SW1P 4DF or in the House of Commons, SW1A 0AA.

No one should ever have to sleep rough. That is why last summer we published the cross-government Rough Sleeping Strategy. This sets out an ambitious £100 million package to help people who sleep rough now, but also puts in place the structures that will end rough sleeping once and for all. The Government has now committed over £1.2 billion to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping over the spending review period. This year, Rough Sleeping Initiative investment totals £46 million and has been allocated to 246 areas – providing funding for an estimated 750 additional staff and over 2,600 bed spaces.</p><p>The expert Rough Sleeping Advisory Panel formed of key representatives from across local government, homelessness and housing sectors, informed the development of a truly cross-Government strategy to halve rough sleeping by 2022 and end it altogether.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South Derbyshire answering member printed Mrs Heather Wheeler question first answered 22/07/2019 16:32:08 answering member 4053 label Biography information for Mrs Heather Wheeler
