The Localism Act 2011 gave local councils freedom to manage their own waiting lists, so they can decide who qualifies for social housing in their area providing they give reasonable preference (overall priority) to certain groups of people in housing need, including homeless households, people living in overcrowded housing, and those who have medical and welfare needs.<\/p>

Since 2012, the social housing waiting list in England has reduced by 37 per cent.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4075", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Christopher Pincher"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Tamworth"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Christopher Pincher"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2020-09-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2020-09-01T09:20:44.07Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "7"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Housing, Communities and Local Government"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Housing, Communities and Local Government"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2020-07-22", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Social Rented Housing: Waiting Lists"} , "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 recent discussions he has had with local authorities on reducing social housing waiting lists.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4638", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Slough"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mr Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi"} ], "uin" : "78833"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1227643", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1227643/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

There is no requirement for residents to report their return to the UK via other means.

These include regular Air India "Vande Bharat" flights and, more recently, flights run by British Airways to the UK.

We believe the vast majority of British travellers seeking to return to the UK - who don't have commercial options - have now done so. Through our embassies, and a dedicated central team, we continue to support British nationals who need consular support and are working to ensure commercial routes are maintained.<\/p>

We have brought nearly 18,000 people back to the UK on 66 chartered flights from India, including from New Delhi, Goa, Mumbai, the Punjab, Gujarat and West Bengal. These flights carried almost all of those in India who registered, were eligible, and took up a flight when given the chance to do so. Since then, thousands of people, including British nationals, have been able to make use of outbound legs of Air India's "Vande Bharat" repatriation flights to return to the UK, as well as the increasing number of British Airways flights which are now running from India. The British High Commission is in contact with airlines, the Indian authorities, and other governments to make sure that more commercial options for returning to the UK are available as soon as possible.<\/p>

Repatriation flights from the Punjab started just five days into the repatriation operation. We estimate that of the 18,000 people who returned to the UK, over 8,000 returned from the Punjab on 29 charter flights between 13 April and 4 June. Our consular teams in India continue to work around the clock to provide support, advice and information to British travellers remaining in Punjab.
