My Department recoups 90% of expenditure to housing authorities for the provision of accommodation and related services for homeless persons under Section 10 of the Housing Act 1988 which enables housing authorities to provide or arrange for the provision of accommodation for homeless persons. An additional 10% is provided by housing authorities from their own resources on homeless accommodation and related services. Information in respect of funding provided under Section 10 for the 34 City and County Council areas for the years 2010 to 2012 is set out in the table.
