Background
The information presented here is based on Welsh local authorities' actions under the homelessness provisions of the Housing Act 1996. This covers the decision as to whether or not there is an obligation under the Act for the local authority to help the household. That is whether the authority accepts that the household is eligible, unintentionally homeless and falls within a priority need group. In this case the household is accepted as statutory homeless.
The information is based on a quarterly statistical return completed by local authorities in Wales. From April 2002 onwards the return was revised and extended to collect information about the age and ethnicity of applicants, the types of household accepted as homelessness and the length of time households stay in temporary accommodation.
The information is collected in order to establish the number and type of households that were accepted as homeless by local authorities during the period and the reasons why these households are homeless. It is also used to establish the number of homeless households in temporary accommodation and the types of accommodation provided. This data is used by the Welsh Government, homelessness agencies and other housing organisations, in order to help monitor trends in the overall level of statutory homelessness across Wales.
Information is also collected about statutory homeless households that are in temporary accommodation; sometimes referred to as households in accommodation arranged by authorities under homelessness legislation. Temporary means that they have not been found suitable accommodation in a settled home. In other words the accommodation can still be in a self-contained dwelling (for example with a private landlord, or in registered social landlord or local authority owned properties) as well as in non-self contained accommodation (for example hostels, refuges and bed and breakfast).
Information about homeless households accommodated temporarily by whether or not there is an obligation under the Act for the local authority to help the household is only available from 1997-98 to 2010-11. The collection of this information ceased at the end of 2010-11.
Quality information
1. This data covers numbers of households not persons.
2. Homelessness data may be subject to seasonal variations, however the data shown in this cube has not been seasonally adjusted and care should be taken when making comparisons between successive quarters.
3. All the figures are rounded independently to the nearest 5 to protect the identity of individuals. As a result, there may be a difference between the sum of the constituent items and the total. An asterisk is shown when the data item is disclosive or not sufficiently robust for publication.
4. For further information, please see <a href= http://wales.gov.uk/topics/statistics/theme/housing/homeless/?lang=en target=_blank> Statistical Release: Homelessness</a>, noting in particular the Key Quality Information section towards the end of the document.
