<p>This Department does not collect information on the proportion of homeless people
who have no recourse to public funds. The Government collects statistics on wider
homelessness issues, such as acceptances and numbers in temporary accommodation. This
data can be found here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/live-tables-on-homelessness"

Government is committed to reducing homelessness and rough sleeping. No one should
ever have to sleep rough. That is why last summer we published the cross-government
Rough Sleeping Strategy, which 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</p>
