RENT DEPOSITS
That this House is concerned that the high cost of rent deposits demanded by private landlords is prohibitively expensive for many homeless people; believes that homelessness would be reduced by providing help for low income families to meet the cost of rent deposits; and urges the Government immediately to review the operation of the Social Fund and housing benefit to allow payments to be used for rent deposits.
