Homelessness Reduction Bill

Proceeding contribution from Caroline Lucas (Green Party) in the House of Commons on Friday, 28 October 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Homelessness Reduction Bill.

I congratulate the hon. Gentleman on introducing this Bill. He talks about local authorities and he is right that changes need to be made to legislation, but does he agree that if this Bill is to be successful there needs to be urgent Government funding behind local authorities so that they can tackle mental health, drug abuse and so forth, and that without that extra funding the good aspirations of the Bill will not work?
