Total number of people receiving local authority section 95 support
Section 95 provides support for asylum seekers who have an asylum claim or appeal outstanding and failed asylum seekers who had children in their household when their appeal rights were exhausted, and includes those in receipt of:
a) Dispersed accommodation - those in receipt of accommodation only, or both accommodation and subsistence.
b) Subsistence only - whereby the applicant receives cash to support themselves but who have found their own accommodation.
Figures reflect the number of people in receipt of support as at the end of the period, rather than the total supported throughout the period.
The number of people in receipt of support changes daily. The numbers reported represent the total population at period end and does not represent all individuals who have been in receipt of support during the period.
