Local Housing Allowance: Care Leavers

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what estimate she has made of the number of care leavers aged between 22 and 25 who are living in one bedroomed accommodation and are entitled to the shared accommodation rate of local housing allowance.

Answer

We do not collect data on the number of care leavers aged 22 to 25 in receipt of housing support and therefore this information is not available.
