- Snapshot of Cumulative number of Ukrainian households in temporary accommodation. Management information on homelessness duties accepted by lower tier local authorities in England in respect of Ukrainian households. Government is collecting this information from local authorities in England for monitoring purposes. This is an ad-hoc release of management information that is voluntarily provided by local authorities and does not constitute an Official Statistics or National Statistics release. Households that are threatened with homelessness within 56 days are owed help from the local authority to prevent homelessness and the authority must work to relieve homelessness for those who are actually homeless. Households who are statutorily homeless are owed legal duties that fall into three main categories: Prevention duties include any activities aimed at preventing a household threatened with homelessness from becoming homeless. This would involve activities to enable an applicant to remain in their current home or find alternative accommodation in order to prevent them from becoming homeless. The duty lasts for 56 days, but may be extended if the local authority is continuing with efforts to prevent homelessness. Relief duties are owed to households that are already homeless and require help to secure settled accommodation. The duty lasts 56 days, and can only be extended by a local authority if the households would not be owed the main homelessness duty. Main homelessness duty describes the duty a local authority has towards an applicant who is unintentionally homeless, eligible for assistance and has priority need 2. This definition has not been changed by the 2017 HRA. However, these households are now only owed a main duty if their homelessness has not been successfully prevented or relieved.
