Atebwyd gan Deputy Minister for Climate Change
We have been clear that we face an incredibly difficult task in setting a budget for next year, as is outlined in the 2024-25 Draft budget published on 19 December.
Within the draft budget, we have protected funding for homelessness prevention, providing additional revenue funding of £2m in the Homelessness Support and Prevention budget, which now stands at over £214m. In recognition of the importance of housing support services, we have protected the Housing Support Grant within this budget, maintaining it at £166.8m in 2024-25, despite the extraordinarily difficult budgetary position.
