I would like to receive the following information: Annual data, for the past six financial years, 2019 to 2025 (to date) on the number of individuals recognised as refugees who have been assessed or recorded by your authority as homeless. If it would exceed the section 12 limit to provide six years of data, please explain why that is and instead provide data for the time period that you are able to provide within the limit. For the relevant period, please provide the following information, broken down by financial year (or calendar year, if more appropriate): 1. The total number of individuals who have approached your authority seeking assistance as homeless. 2. Of those who approached your authority as homeless, how many were recognised as refugees - i.e., individuals granted refugee status or humanitarian protection with leave to remain. 3. Of the homeless individuals recognised as refugees, how many were granted their refugee status and leave to remain by a different local authority. 4. Total annual spending on homelessness for each of the past six financial years (or as many as you are able to provide within the s.12 limit). This should cover: a. Support provided under statutory homelessness duties; b. Support for individuals presenting informally or via referral who do not qualify for statutory assistance. 5. Of the total homelessness spend, how much was spent on homeless individuals with refugee status. Please treat this request in accordance with the timelines set by the Act. If you are encountering practical difficulties with complying with this request, please can you contact me as soon as possible so that we can discuss the matter and, if necessary, I can modify the request. I would prefer for this information to be presented in table form, preferably in an excel document, but failing that as a PDF. Please present single financial years from 2019-2020 to 2025-2026 (data to date) in ascending order from left to right in a row, with the relevant data beneath.
