These are published at a local authority level. The latest statistics can be found at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/homelessness-statistics" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/homelessness-statistics</a>.</p><p>The Government remains committed to combating homelessness and rough sleeping. No one should ever have to sleep rough. That is why we are aiming to halve rough sleeping by 2022 and eliminate it altogether by 2027. To achieve this, we will set up a new Homelessness Reduction Taskforce that will focus on prevention and affordable housing, and we will pilot a Housing First approach to tackle rough sleeping.</p><p>We also supported the Homelessness Reduction Act which received Royal Assent on 27 April 2017. The Act significantly reforms England’s homelessness legislation, ensuring that more people get the help they need earlier to prevent them from becoming homeless in the first place.</p> answering member constituency Nuneaton answering member printed Mr Marcus Jones question first answered 10/07/2017 16:40:44 answering member 4024 label Biography information for Mr Marcus Jones

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/07/2017 answer text <p>Centrica Storage Ltd’s decision to close the Rough gas storage facility is a commercial decision based on the age of the asset and the costs of repair. As such, we do not have the information to undertake a comprehensive assessment of the effect on wholesale gas prices of maintaining the gas storage facility at Rough. However, Rough was unavailable in the market last winter, and we believe this was largely expected by market participants so we don’t expect any significant effect on prices.</p> answering member constituency Watford answering member printed Richard Harrington question first answered 10/07/2017 16:49:53 answering member 4068 label Biography information for Lord Harrington of Watford
