This Government is clear that nobody should be without a roof over their head. That is why we have committed to ending rough sleeping for good, with the aim of halving it by 2022.<\/p>

Last summer we published the cross-government Rough Sleeping Strategy. This 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>

We are giving serious consideration to the findings of the report from St Mungo\u2019s and Homeless Link. Housing-related support services are a local government responsibility. To deepen our understanding, we are undertaking a review of housing-related support services in order to build a comprehensive picture of current arrangements and how support and housing fit together.<\/p>

We also know that we need to build more social homes, which will help us to achieve our goal of preventing homelessness. The Government has made £9 billion available through the Affordable Homes Programme to March 2022, to deliver 250,000 new affordable homes of a wide range of tenures - including social rent. The expanded programme will provide homes to meet the housing needs of a range of people in different circumstances and different housing markets \u2013 building the right homes in the right places.<\/p>

We understand the importance of giving local areas security around funding. The Chancellor has said that there will be a spending review this year. Decisions about the future of homelessness funding, along with all other government funding, will be made at this point. Ministers have made clear that homelessness and rough sleeping are a key priority for this Government. We are working with other government departments to assess what more can be done to combat rough sleeping and wider homelessness. This work is being overseen by the Ministerial Rough Sleeping and Homelessness Reduction Taskforce and will be an important part of our preparations for the forthcoming Spending Review.<\/p>

While there is more work to be done in this area, there are some positive developments which I would like to point to. For the first time since 2010, the annual rough sleeping statistics saw a decrease in the number of those sleeping rough. Whilst only 2 per cent, this is in the face of average yearly increases of nearly 16 per cent. The annual rough sleeping statistics also showed a 19 per cent decrease in the number of those sleeping rough amongst the 83 local authorities that were part of the first phase of our Rough Sleeping Initiative (RSI) in comparison with 2017. We are currently carrying out an evaluation of the impact of our RSI, that will help to determine what effect our funding has had on reducing numbers of rough sleepers<\/p>


In its first year, RSI funding provided over 1,750 new bed spaces and 500 staff across the country. This year we have expanded the initiative with an investment of £46 million providing funding for an estimated 2,600 bed spaces and 750 staff. £12 million of this is for areas new to the programme, bringing the total authorities funded to 246.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4053", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mrs Heather Wheeler"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "South Derbyshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mrs Heather Wheeler"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-06-17", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-06-17T16:10:55.963Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "7"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Housing, Communities and Local Government"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Housing, Communities and Local Government"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-06-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Homelessness"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of the implications for his policies of recent research by St Mungo\u2019s and Homeless Link showing reductions in local authority funding and in spending on homelessness between 2008-09 and 2017-18 and and an increase in rough sleeping since 2010.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4523", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Catherine West"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hornsey and Wood Green"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Catherine West"} ], "uin" : "262413"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1130868", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Education"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1130868/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

NHS England has determined that provider collaboratives for specialised mental health, learning disability and autism services will be managed by a lead provider in their local area. The lead provider will be given delegated responsibility for managing the budget and patient pathway for specialised care for their local population.<\/p>

They will be monitored and held to account via a contract with NHS England, which will retain ultimate accountability for the commissioning of these services. The lead provider will work in partnership with a collaborative of National Health Service and independent sector providers to deliver care locally to their population.<\/p>

Ensuring the National Health Service has the right number of leaders with the right skills, values and experience is a key aspect of the interim NHS People Plan, which was published on 3 June. Developing and nurturing leadership talent is one of the ways the NHS will ensure it has the right culture to empower all staff to work to the best of their ability.<\/p>

The action set out in the interim NHS People Plan builds on the NHS Leadership Academy\u2019s work to establish regional talent boards and talent pools across the NHS in England. Additionally, a new NHS High Potential Scheme and an increase in the size of the annual intake of the Graduate Management Training Scheme to 500 will be delivered in 2019/20.<\/p>

The NHS Long Term Plan, published 7 January 2019, sets out a vital strategic framework to ensure that over the next 10 years the National Health Service will have the staff it needs, so that nurses have the time they need to administer the expert compassionate care they are committed providing.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Interim People Plan published June 2019, commits to providing clinical placement funding for an additional 5,000 clinical placements for pre-registration nursing and midwifery training each year.<\/p>

In support of this commitment, NHS Improvement and NHS England are currently delivering a rapid clinical placement expansion programme, working with trust directors of nursing to provide targeted support and resource to increase placement capacity for the September 2019 intake, and will undertake a comprehensive review of clinical placement activity to increase expansion and student intakes in future years.<\/p>
