HM Government needs to pull its finger out and ensure that *all* legislation on legislation.gov.uk is available in its amended form. Essential for the rule of law.

Good choice!

I certainly think 21 days is a short period in the context of losing a roof over your head. As I say my experience says otherwise on the care point. A common outcome is the applicant obtaining private sector accommodation perhaps with CS assistance, which ironically will likely be further away.

Homelessness should not (and will not in my experience) be used as a basis for putting a dependant child into care. In any legal system there must be a deadline for challenging a decision.

Thanks. Enjoy Africa.
