uin	263868
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/06/2019 answer text <p>Question 259337 dealt with the release of children into homelessness. In order to answer that question, 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 two minutes to check each record, which equates to a cost of approximately £16,900. This does not include the time required to engage with Local Authorities where necessary.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 17/06/2019 16:18:09 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar
