I write to request information on the number of households claiming Universal Credit and/or housing benefit who presented to you as homeless between May 2022 and June 2023.

1. I would like this information to be broken down into the following:

a) The total number of households claiming Universal Credit presenting as homeless since May 2022, broken down into leasehold property, private rented and social housing;
Leasehold: 1
Private rented: 95
Social Housing: 37

b) The total number of households claiming housing benefit – part of the legacy welfare system – presenting as homeless since May 2022, broken down into leasehold property, private rented and social housing (if relevant).
Leasehold: 0
Private rented: 18
Social Housing: 3
