§ Mr. Alfred MorrisTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what information local authorities are required to keep on the type and standard of cooking facilities available to homeless families placed in temporary accommodation.
§ Mr. BaldryThe "Homelessness Code of Guidance to Local Authorities" issued by my Department advises authorities to ensure that temporary accommodation meets acceptable standards; this would include the standard of cooking facilities. It is for each authority to decide what information to hold about this.
