The Bishop of St Albans received the following written answer on 29th November 2021:
The Lord Bishop of St Albans asked Her Majesty’s Government:
- what assessment they have made of the number of EU nationals living in England who have become homeless since the UK formally withdrew from the EU.
- what steps they are taking to alleviate homelessness among EU nationals living in England.
Lord Greenhalgh (Con): Local housing authorities report their homelessness activities under Part 7 of the Housing Act 1996 to the Department by completing the quarterly Homelessness Case Level Collection (H-CLIC) statistical return. H-CLIC is an upload of all cases about statutory homelessness and the authority’s activities within the legislative framework.
Figures from the latest H-CLIC data show that in England between March 2020 and April 2021, 15,140 EEA nationals were owed a homelessness prevention or relief duty. This is an 11% decrease from 2019/20.
