Dear Madam,

Further to your below FOI request, we are writing to advise that we do not
require applicants to specify their sexual orientation. Whilst we have
managed to run a report, it is not complete and therefore we can only
report on those that have chosen to complete this part of the form. For
example, we only have the sexual orientation of around one third of
homeless applicants in 2018/2019.

Please could you advise if you still wish to see the information that we
do hold?

Yours sincerely,

Data Request Team
