PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Homes for Ukraine Scheme (3 November 2022)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what recent estimate his Department has made of the cost to local authorities of finding accommodation for Ukrainian refugees whose initial family placement have come to an end in the latest period for which data is available.

Asked by:
Helen Morgan (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

We have provided funding per arrival to councils to enable them to provide support to individuals and families. This is un-ringfenced, which allows councils to use the funding as best suits the local area, including measures to support guests during and post the initial six months of sponsorship.

On the question of finding hosts and accommodation for Ukrainian guests, I refer the Hon. Member to Question UIN69812 answered on the 1 November 2022.
