The Minister often references the exits and permanent, secure housing and tenancies. It is very welcome when people exit homelessness to permanent, secure housing tenancies. What he did not mention is that a lot of the exits are back into precarious situation with people sleeping on floors, couches and even ending up in hospital and so forth. When he speaks about exits, he should actually speak about how many exits are into permanent, secure tenancies and how many exits are back into precarious situations.
