Laura Kyrke-Smith MP for Aylesbury 7th March 2025

‘I welcome the £5m that this Labour Government has invested into tackling homelessness in Bucks, and I
celebrate the fantastic work that Aylesbury Homeless Action Group, Connection Support and Youth
Concern are doing locally. They provide invaluable guidance and support to people facing
homelessness. In recent weeks I have heard from many constituents frightened by the decision of Buckinghamshire
Council to close its housing register.
Today in Parliament, I asked Minister Lucy Powell MP about the importance of giving our full support to
people facing homelessness, as well as the need to address the underlying causes of homelessness,
such as the lack of affordable and social housing.’
