Domestic Abuse and Homelessness

Proceeding contribution from Carolyn Harris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 12 June 2019. It occurred during Debate on Domestic Abuse and Homelessness.

It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mr Davies. I congratulate my hon. Friend on securing this debate. The link between being a victim of domestic abuse and homelessness is undeniable, and the draft Domestic Abuse Bill will be an opportunity to change that. Currently, one person can end a dual tenancy, which means a victim can effectively be left homeless. Does my hon. Friend agree that this must be changed, and that we must ensure that it takes two parties to end a tenancy?
