In the rare case where logistical issues have been identified, we have a dedicated team who are able to further investigate and respond.<\/p>
Between 30 July and 5 August 2020, 43.3% of test results for satellite testing, which includes care home testing, were received within 48 hours of the test being taken. Care homes predominantly use satellite test kits as they need greater control and flexibility over when tests are collected. For example, tests may be conducted over multiple days with a collection scheduled a few days later.<\/p>
Due to this, a lower proportion of test results will be available within 24 hours of the test being taken. We are encouraging more care homes to conduct testing over the weekend (Friday to Sunday) where possible to do so, to make better use of available lab capacity which should support faster turn-around times.<\/p>
Turnaround times for tests conducted under Pillar 1 and Pillar 2 are published weekly on GOV.uk as part of the Weekly NHS Test and Trace Bulletin.<\/p>"}

I recently wrote to local authorities asking them to work closely with their local domestic abuse safe accommodation providers to ensure that victims of domestic abuse and their families can be provided with safe emergency accommodation and appropriate support to avoid further pressures on frontline homelessness services.<\/p>
To understand how the funding is meeting local needs and pressures across the country, vital data is being provided by local authorities. This data is enabling us to monitor the use of the funds and will inform our wider conversations within Government.<\/p>
In 2018, Government published statutory guidance designed to help local authorities ensure that victims of domestic abuse in a refuge or other form of temporary accommodation have appropriate priority under their social housing allocation schemes.<\/p>
On 2 May, the Government announced an unprecedented £76\u202fmillion package of support to ensure the most vulnerable in society get the support they need during the pandemic.<\/p>
A change to the rules will also mean that those fleeing domestic abuse and facing homelessness as a result will be automatically considered as priority by their council for housing \u2013 ensuring more survivors of domestic abuse have access to a safe home.<\/p>
The Government is aware of concerns about those with no recourse to public funds during the COVID-19 crisis.<\/p>
We are ensuring local authorities are supported, with £3.2 billion provided to local authorities as part of the wider Government response to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>
This funding has been provided to help local authorities to reduce risks to public health and to support individuals on the basis of need.<\/p>
The legal position on those with no recourse to public funds has not been amended.<\/p>
