(a – c)
Transitional housing is a broad term that covers a range of accommodation delivered by both Government and in partnership with the private sector.
The spectrum of accommodation includes crisis accommodation, short to medium term accommodation supporting clients to gain skills to access the private market and long-term accommodation which tenants have the option to purchase.
It is unclear from the member’s question what housing they are referring to.
