    Decision status: Deleted

    Is Key decision?: Yes

    Is subject to call in?: Yes

    Purpose:

    Report of the Head of Housing and Property Services outlining the types of tenancy available.

    Decisions:

    Arising from a report of the Head of Housing and Property Services, the Decent and Affordable Homes Policy Development Group had recommended that the revised Tenancy Policy be approved.

     

    The Cabinet Member for Housing stated that the revised policy indicated how houses were allocated to tenants: introductory tenancies followed by flexible tenancies, how problems with tenants were dealt with, the needs of tenants and the review of people’s circumstances.  The review of the policy reflected changes in good practice and allowed any legislative changes to be updated accordingly.

     

    RESOLVED that the recommendation of the Decent and Affordable Homes Policy Development Group be approved.

     

    (Proposed by  Cllr R L Stanley and seconded by Cllr N V Davey)
