Recommendation 19

19

We welcome the government’s decision to apply the Decent Homes Standard to temporary accommodation.

Conclusion
We welcome the government’s decision to apply the Decent Homes Standard to temporary accommodation. However, we are concerned that the standard will not guarantee people housed in some types of temporary accommodation access to the basic facilities, such as a kitchen, that they need for daily life. (Conclusion, Paragraph 64)
