To ask the Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government the research he has carried out regarding the viability of rolling out the housing assistance payment scheme to 75,000 families and persons by 2020, in view of the already considerable difficulty in getting landlord agreement for the existing rent allowance scheme; his plans to deal with the local authorities' duty of care to tenants under the housing assistance payment scheme in the future, particularly in regard to security of tenure and standards of accommodation; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
