However, in April 2018 the Ministry of Housing Communities and Local Government introduced a new, case-level data collection called H-CLIC (Homelessness Case Level Information Collection), from which the first tranche of data will be released in due course. This will give local authorities and Government more information regarding homelessness and those presenting as homeless, including if they are a previous member of the armed forces and have support needs.</p> answering member constituency South Derbyshire answering member printed Mrs Heather Wheeler question first answered 05/12/2018 14:16:55 answering member 4053 label Biography information for Mrs Heather Wheeler
