We are now in the final phase of the Pensions Investment Review, and I look forward to publishing its final report in the coming months.
Our reforms, to Defined Contribution schemes and the Local Government Pension Scheme, will create fewer, larger pension funds with greater ability to invest in productive assets, supporting better returns for savers and higher growth for the UK.
Parliamentary Secretary (HM Treasury)
This is a Government of service that will always stand up for those who serve our country. The Minister for Veterans and People is working across Government to ensure veterans across the UK have access to the support they need on housing, as well as health, employment and other areas.
As housing is a devolved matter, we are working with the Welsh Government and the other Devolved Governments to tackle the shared challenge of homelessness.
This Government has financed the Reducing Veteran Homelessness Programme, which funds wrap-around support in units of supported housing. Since its inception in July 2023, it has awarded £1,380,214 to providers offering services in Wales.
Veterans in need of housing support can contact their local council or Op FORTITUDE, a single referral pathway to connect veterans with help and support. This system provides housing guidance and assistance to veterans experiencing or at risk of homelessness across the UK. As of 19 January 2025, over 3,069 referrals have been made and nearly 870 veterans have been supported into housing.
