Among the changes that have been brought in are homeless HAP and tenant in situ, which has been extended nationally, as well as housing support workers. They were not in place back in 2020. There are now housing support advisers or workers and key workers assigned to people. To be fair, the key workers are assigned to people who are in homelessness and emergency accommodation.

The Deputy stated the number of notices to quit is increasing, but does he have any analysis that shows the increase is proportionate to the population increase? Is it increasing in real terms? How many tenancies are not already benefiting from tenant in situ, the extra notice period, homeless HAP, a key worker or a housing support worker? How many tenancies are at risk of needing this legislation? I do not know whether the Deputy has those figures.
