Further to the Written Answer by Lord Whitty on 13 April (WA112), what is their target for the reduction in the number of those sleeping rough in the Victoria rough sleeping zone in (a) six months' time and (b) 12 months. [HL2023]
§ Lord WhittyNo intermediate targets have been set for reductions in the numbers of people sleeping rough in specific areas of London.
