Mr. Damien Peelo:

That goes into a much deeper issue relating to inequality in regard to applications for housing. If a parent is not seeing the children through a court order agreement, he or she can apply to the local authority, in some cases, to get onto the housing list for a two-bedroom house, for example. Often, however, he or she will be seen as the non-custodial parent and, therefore, his or her right to high-quality accommodation that is appropriate for the needs of his or her children and to have carer responsibilities for the children may not be granted. This varies throughout the country and, again, there is no uniformity as to how parents can access it. Local authorities have different rules for how they will assess parents' housing needs.
