Good Afternoon,

Please could you confirm the information requested in Q1 and Q2 is definitely not held?

Local authorities have to record and submit the number of households placed in temporary accommodation outside of their local area, and so I understand most also record the number of households with children as a sub-category.

Yours sincerely,

Sally Wardle
