READING West MP Alok Sharma talks this week about plans to end rough sleeping. He writes; The Government is committed to ending rough sleeping in this Parliament and to fully enforcing the Homelessness Reduction Act. That is why we will be spending more than £750 million in 2021/22 to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping. The Government has this week announced the allocation of a key element of this overall investment: £310 million in funding through the Homelessness Prevention Grant that will be made available to local authorities in 2021/22 to support them in delivering services to prevent and tackle homelessness.
