HC Deb 29 March 1984 vol 57 c289W
Mr. Steen

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the number of homeless people in each of the last five years, breaking this down region by region.

Sir George Young

The figures available are for homeless households for whom local authorities have accepted responsibility for securing accommodation. They are published half-yearly for England. Copies of tables containing the figures are in the House of Commons Library.
