tabling member constituency	Barnsley Central

uin	188172
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>We have not estimated the number of homes that would be built on a local authority basis, following the abolition of the Housing Revenue Account borrowing cap. We estimate that nationally, local authority delivery will increase to around 10,000 homes per year. Local authorities in South Yorkshire, and elsewhere, are able to use their new borrowing freedom to start building new homes to meet the needs of their communities immediately. We want to see them seize this opportunity and build a new generation of council housing.</p><p>In respect of the additional £2 billion of grant funding for Affordable Housing from 2022 to 2029, it is not possible to determine the distribution across regions until bids have been approved. Homes England do publish allocations data on the current 2016-2022 Affordable Homes Programme outside of London. As of March 2018, 1,361 affordable homes have been allocated grant funding in South Yorkshire.</p><p>Local authorities in South Yorkshire were successful in securing £5.8 million of Housing Infrastructure Fund (HIF) Marginal Viability Funding, which will unlock up to 730 homes. The final funding amounts are subject to a funding clarification process that is currently underway. We are currently working with Sheffield City Regions Combined Authority to develop their HIF Forward Funding bid. We cannot say if this funding will support homes in South Yorkshire until their bid is submitted in the coming months.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 12/11/2018 17:14:42 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>Domestic abuse is a devastating crime, and we are taking action to make sure survivors get the support they need. My Department has committed £40 million up to 2020 to support victims of domestic abuse.</p><p>Councils have a legal duty to provide assistance to people whom they assess as homeless as a result of domestic abuse, and to provide accommodation to families and others who are vulnerable as a result of fleeing domestic abuse.</p><p>My Department is also carrying out a review of how domestic abuse services are commissioned and funded locally across England. We are working closely with other Departments, the domestic abuse sector and local authorities, to develop sustainable delivery options for domestic abuse services, including refuges.</p><p>We recognise that the needs of those who present as homeless and are victims of domestic violence can be different. That is why we are ensuring that frontline workers receive the relevant training to support these victims.</p><p>As outlined in the recently published Rough Sleeping Strategy, the Department is currently developing the Young Futures Fund. This is a social impact bond programme aimed at supporting vulnerable young people aged 18-24 who are at risk of becoming – or are currently – homeless or rough sleeping.</p> answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire question first answered 12/11/2018 17:09:41 answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>All social homes should be provided and maintained to a decent standard. Progress in the social sector has been made. In 2016, 13 per cent of homes were non-decent compared with 20 per cent in 2010. We are using the Social Housing Green Paper to consider whether the Decent Homes Standard is demanding enough and delivers the right standards for social housing alongside other tenures. In respect of the East Midlands, in June 2018 we announced a strategic partnership between Homes England and East Midlands Housing, which will see 748 additional affordable homes built in the region by March 2022.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 12/11/2018 17:17:53 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
