Supported Housing: Standards
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what steps his Department is taking to support (a) housing providers, (b) housing associations and (c) arms-length management organisations with meeting the costs of regulatory standards for supported housing.
Answered by Alison McGovern
The Department consulted on a proposed licensing regime and standards for supported housing between 20 February 2025 and 15 May 2025. A government response to the consultation will be published as soon as possible.
The Department is working closely with supported housing providers and stakeholders to ensure that standards and licensing are proportionate and that implementation is carefully planned, to avoid any unintended consequences.
The Department will continue to work closely with supported housing providers and stakeholders as implementation of the measures set out in the Act proceeds.
