Martin Walker of Local Partnerships says the answer to the question which councils should be asking themselves – ‘should we be reopening an HRA’ – will depend on local context and circumstances, rather than a preconceived policy position.

Local Partnerships with financial support from the LGA has developed a tool in conjunction with Manchester City Council to help councils assess the scale of their homelessness challenge, says Martin Walker
