<p>No such assessment has been made. The causes of homelessness are complex, and it
is driven by a range of factors, both personal and structural.</p><p>Government is
committed to preventing homelessness where possible. We have announced the allocation
of £654 million in funding through the Homelessness Prevention Grant that will be
made available to local authorities in 2023/24 and 2024/25. This is in addition to
the £50 million top-up to the Homelessness Prevention Grant for 2022/23 announced
earlier in December.</p><p>This is on top of the action Government has taken to support
households with the cost of living. At Autumn statement, the Chancellor announced
further support for 2023/24. This included a 10.1% increase in benefits from April
2023, and extra support provided to all households with the Energy Price Guarantee
which will save the average UK household £500 in 2023-24.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>
