Decision details

Received a report in accordance with the Homelessness Act 2002, which requires that local housing authorities conduct a review of homelessness in their areas and develop and publish a Homelessness Strategy.

The report sets out briefly how the Strategy was conducted, the increasing homelessness trend in the Borough and draws attention to some of the actions being taken to both prevent homelessness and extend and improve the range of temporary accommodation for those who become homeless.

Agreed to recommend the Assembly to adopt the Homelessness Strategy in accordance with the requirements of the Homelessness Act 2002.
