Written Answers
Homelessness: Temporary Accommodation
Asked by: Peter Lamb (Labour - Crawley)
Wednesday 27th November 2024

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if she will make an assessment of the potential impact of levels of Housing Benefit subsidy on the capacity of local authorities to meet their statutory homelessness duties.

Answered by Stephen Timms - Minister of State (Department for Work and Pensions)

We recognise the financial pressures which local authorities are experiencing. MHCLG are increasing funding for homelessness services from next year by £233 million compared to this year (2024/25). Levels of Housing Benefit subsidy for temporary accommodation are kept under review and future decisions will be taken in the context of the government’s missions, goals on housing and the current fiscal context.

Local Government Finance
Asked by: Peter Lamb (Labour - Crawley)
Monday 2nd December 2024

Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what role the Office of Local Government will play in examining council spending.

Answered by Jim McMahon - Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government)

We are currently reviewing the role of Office for Local Government and we will announce the outcome shortly. Scrutiny of council spending is clearly important, and that is why we are committed to overhauling the broken local audit system we inherited.

We have already taken decisive action to help clear the significant backlog of unaudited accounts and will shortly set out longer-term plans to fix local audit.

Select Committee Inquiry
3 Dec 2024
Review of the 2024 general election
Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 27 Jan 2025)


Following the publication of the Electoral Commission report on the general election 2024, the Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee are considering the issue of the administration, process and conduct of the 2024 general election and how these could be improved for future elections.

Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry.

Public Bodies
Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 7 Feb 2025)


Governments have created Public Bodies when it is felt that certain functions are best conducted outside the normal departmental structures and at some distance from direct ministerial control. There are currently around 500, though classification can be vague. They vary hugely in terms of their size, governance arrangements, and the types of roles they perform. They are ‘owned’ by their sponsoring department but subject to Cabinet Office and HM Treasury guidance. This states that that they should only be created and continue to operate as a last resort and when:

  • A Public Body is required to perform a highly technical function
  • It is required to perform activities that require political impartiality
  • It needs to act independently to establish facts?

However, new ones continue to be created: the Government has launched several in its first months and plans for others have been announced.

Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry.
