The Homes for Ukraine scheme relies on cooperation between Government, local government, the voluntary sector, and faith / Ukrainian representative organisations. We engage with local government and other partners through several different conversations and working groups to date. This has included Ministerial roundtables attended by local government representatives, official led working group meetings, and ongoing bilateral engagement with local authority Chief Executives and senior representatives.

Further, I refer the Hon. Member to the written statement (HCWS447) made by my Rt. Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State, on 14 December 2022.
