In setting this amount the Government considers the likely pressures and efficiency savings that can be made on a range of services, together with the overall fiscal environment, including the need to tackle the deficit left by the last Administration. This amount may be subsequently amended either through Budgets or Autumn Statements.</p><p>It is up to local authorities to decide how to set their budgets, taking into account local spending priorities.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Stowell of Beeston question first answered 09/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 4205 label Biography information for Baroness Stowell of Beeston

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/05/2014 answer text <p>A table containing the requested information for England has been placed in the Library of the House; to assist public scrutiny, I have included data from 2003 to 2013. The table shows there were 4,480 homeless people due to a mental illness/disability in England in 2013, compared to 12,040 in 2003; it also shows the average level in England under this Government is far less than the average rate under the last Administration.</p><p>This Government has invested £470 million in England to prevent and tackle all forms of homelessness over the spending review period. The homelessness legislation in England provides one of the strongest safety nets in the world. The law ensures that people who are vulnerable as a result of old age, mental illness or handicap or physical disability will have priority need for accommodation if they become homeless through no fault of their own.</p><p>Data on homelessness outside England are a matter for the devolved Administrations</p> answering member printed Baroness Stowell of Beeston question first answered 01/05/2014 12:00:00 answering member 4205 label Biography information for Baroness Stowell of Beeston attachment 1 file name 140501 HL 6501 PQ-2442-DEPOSITED PAPER.xlsx title Homeless housholdes due to mental illness/disabily
