The Value for Money Review of homelessness will assess the underlying cost-effectiveness of cross government spend that helps to prevent and relieve all forms of homelessness, and will make actionable recommendations that improve efficiency, accountability, outcomes, and reduce financial pressures on councils. The review will also explore accommodation delivery models, including novel and innovative approaches to temporary accommodation and the supported housing sector. The findings will inform decisions for future policy development.
