I refer my Hon Friend to my answer to Question UIN 201711<\/a> on 23 October 2023. This is part of the £2 billion of funding committed to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping over three years.<\/p>

The right housing can play a vital role in delivering improved wellbeing and health, and greater independence, for many older people. It is for local authorities such as London Borough of Havering in Romford to plan for the right housing options, working with local partners, based on the needs of older people locally.<\/p>

The £11.5 billion Affordable Homes programme (2021-26) (England) includes delivery within the programme of new supply of supported and sheltered housing. This is alongside other investment in specialist housing for older and disabled people with personal care needs, through the Department for Health and Social Care.<\/p>

The Government has established an independent Older People\u2019s Housing Taskforce to look at how a greater choice of housing might be provided for older people. The year-long Taskforce launched in May 2023 and the Government is looking forward to receiving its final recommendations in 2024.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4821", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Felicity Buchan"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Kensington"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Felicity Buchan"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2023-11-16", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : {"_value" : "1312"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2023-11-16T16:00:41.693Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "211"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Levelling Up, Housing and Communities"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Levelling Up, Housing and Communities"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2023-11-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Homelessness: Families"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what steps he is taking to support local authorities with housing vulnerable homeless families in (a) Romford and (b) England.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1447", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andrew Rosindell"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Romford"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Andrew Rosindell"} ], "uin" : "1313"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1140761", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1140761/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

I have received representation on this matter from a number of local authorities, including that of my Hon Friend, during my recent visit to Harlow.
