HC Deb 03 July 1996 vol 280 c482W
23. Mr. Welsh

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what recent steps he has taken to tackle homelessness in Scotland. [34193]

Mr. Raymond S. Robertson

We are currently consulting on a revised draft code of guidance on homelessness. This year, we are providing grants of more than £400,000 to voluntary bodies for homelessness projects. Tackling homelessness is also a national priority for both local housing authorities and Scottish Homes.
