Purpose

There are around 400 placements of households
in existing emergency accommodation with providers who’ve not
yet successfully applied to the new EA Framework, and it is not
possible to move them all out by the date of the framework
expiry.

Content

Decision to allow existing placements in
emergency accommodation to remain there past the expiry date of the
framework while we work on moving them on to suitable longer-term
accommodation.
No new arrangements will be made with providers using the expired
framework.
New arrangements for Emergency Accommodation will only be made via
the newly commissioned EA Framework
