Decision details

To adopt the revised Housing Allocations Policy.

1)    That the revisedHousing Allocations Policy be adopted; and

2)    That minor operational amendments be delegated to the Assistant Director – Housing in consultation with the Portfolio Holder for Communities and Operational Housing.  

·       To ensure that the Housing Allocations Policy references the most recent legislation, reflects current operational practice and supports the demand on Council services from homeless households.

·       Do nothing – make no changes and continue to use the policy approved in 2021.  This option is not recommended – it is good practice to update policies on a regular basis and amendments are required due to changes in case law.
