Require councils to review social housing tenancies
People are being left without support, while some social housing tenants remain in subsidised homes despite earning high incomes or no longer meeting the need criteria.
Tenants facing eviction for council housing acquisition
Multiple tenants are being evicted so their landlord can sell the housing block to a council for conversion to temporary accommodation.
Require local councils to accept shared ownership purchase of their properties
Allow anyone living in a council house who has the right to buy their home to be able to buy their home at the full market value (without the right to buy discount) as part of a shared ownership scheme through the council. All income from the scheme should be ring fenced to build more council homes.
Increase fines and make councils remove fly tipping from farms & nature reserve
We ask the Government to help farmers and nature reserves by increasing the minimum fixed penalties for fly tipping on farmland and nature reserves, in order to cover the costs of fly tipping on this land.
Lack of council housing availability and support
Resident reports difficulty obtaining council housing after years of applications, citing poor website updates and inadequate council assistance.
