Ms Louisa Santoro:

No, because their time in homelessness does not count. The longer people stay in emergency accommodation, effectively, the fewer opportunities they have to move out. That is why we need to approach this with a sense of urgency, so that when people arrive in emergency accommodation, resources need to be applied swiftly because if people are there for 18 months or two years, while their needs may not be complex on day one, they certainly are after 18 months.
