156 households waiting for clearance
Delays in criminal records checks are ‘causing challenges’ for Salford people offering to host Ukrainians fleeing Vladimir Putin’s war. There are currently 300 applications from people in the city offering accommodation and DBS checks are awaited for 156 households under the city council’s Homes for Ukraine Scheme.
The panel was told that the main reasons for applications to be hosts ‘not progressing’ were awaiting ID and safeguarding. Some 232 safeguarding checks have been completed and approved on 127 households. Nine were not approved. Ms Loundes said other challenges facing the council included the speed of arrivals from Ukraine, the unknown numbers of people coming through other routes, family/relationship breakdown, pressure on housing services, staff capacity to run the scheme and potential hosts withdrawing from the scheme. Meanwhile, some 252 people have signed up with health services from all schemes with highest percentage in the 25 to 65-year age range.
“Some of these people were picked up as rough sleepers,” she said. The ABEN scheme has 20 bed spaces, but is continually filled up whenever vacancies occur, she said.
