Sleeping Rough: Ealing Southall
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if she will make an estimate of the number of people that are rough sleeping in Ealing Southall constituency.
Answered by Rushanara Ali
Homelessness levels are far too high. This has a devastating impact on those affected and harms our communities.
In the Annual Rough Sleeping Snapshot 2023, the London Borough of Ealing had a 121% increase in the number of people sleeping rough on a single night, increasing from 24 people in 2022 to 53 in 2023.
We must address this and deliver long-term solutions. The Government will look at these issues carefully and develop a new cross-government strategy to get us back on track to ending all forms of homelessness.
