Thanks to APPG member @switherdenMP for raising the Local Housing Allowance freeze & its impact on survivors of domestic abuse.
Just 1 in every 100 homes for rent in Wales is affordable on LHA.
Thanks to @jessphillips for her reply.

In her contribution @PaulaBarkerMP spoke about how the freezing of housing benefits is making many homes in her area unaffordable for those in need.
The Chancellor must restore the link between housing benefits and the real cost of renting.
