Are you on the council house waiting list? Are you having problems accessing housing ? Are you aware there are changes coming in on who can be accepted for housing or who can stay on the list?

Over 3000 people will be removed from the list or find their banding downgraded

Do something now!!!!!!

The consultation closes on Wednesday 3rd December @ 23:59

Don’t let this opportunity to have your say pass you by or the next thing that might happen is that you could find yourself reading letters saying you are no longer on the housing register.

Links to the consultation are below

Applicants without a defined housing need (Section 5) will no longer be able to join the Council’s register. Instead, they will receive advice to look at other housing options.

The scheme also updates the banding system. It will move from Bands A–E to a simpler Bands A–D structure.

Band E will be removed, and Band D will be used less often. This helps make sure the register reflects those with the greatest housing needs.

As a result, some applicants will no longer qualify, and their applications will be closed.

These include:

Band D: Sharing with Others (without Dependents) – affects 1,724 applicants.

Band E: Seeking Sheltered – affects 1,136 applicants.

Band E: Local Connection to a S106/Village Exception Site – affects 247 applicants.

In total, 3,107 active applications will be affected by this change.
