Homelessness (No. 2)

EDM number 541 in 2007-08, proposed by Karen Buck on 11/12/2007.
Categorised under the topics of Community care, Homelessness, Social rented housing and Supported housing.

That this House notes that next year marks the 10-year anniversary of the Government's commitment to reduce by two-thirds the number of homeless people forced to sleep rough and the launch of the Rough Sleepers Unit; congratulates those involved on the progress made so far; welcomes the extra investment in hostels and support services; notes Shelter's new report Reaching Out, produced in partnership with Broadway, and based on consultation with single homeless people; is concerned that many of the problems faced by street homeless people have not gone away; supports Shelter's recommendations for expanding support services, improving access to hostel spaces, and increasing move-on accommodation; and calls on the Government to take forward these recommendations so that by Christmas 2008 more people can rebuild their lives and break the cycle of homelessness.

This motion has been signed by a total of 155 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
