What I outlined the last day at this committee was that we are going to be dealing with certain exceptional cases where a tailored solution will have to be found. The commitment made a year ago was that homeless families would not be accommodated in hotels unless there were exceptional circumstances. There are a number of families with continuing exceptional circumstances. We will get to the point of reaching the target of new families presenting as homeless not going into hotels at all but rather going into another form of accommodation immediately. As we reach the other target of moving the families currently homeless out of hotels, there will be a number of families whose exceptional circumstances will demand that we find a tailored solution.
