Housing Allocation Policy Consultation

Redbridge Council would like you to share your views on the proposed revision of the housing allocation scheme.

This scheme informs how we allocate housing both in and out of the borough and prioritise the people on the housing register. We anticipate that the revised scheme will launch in 2024 following this consultation.

In revising the housing allocations scheme we seek to:

• Set out clearly how we allocate and let social housing in the borough
• Ensure decisions are made fairly and with clear reasons
• Make it easier to understand
• Make it easier to understand the eligibility criteria, who qualifies, and who we cannot house
• Improve the way we prioritise people. This is especially important given the high demand for the few properties that are available to let each year
• Make sure we comply with recent legislation and good practice

We want your views on this new scheme and invite you to complete our online survey below. The survey is anonymous, and the names or details of any individuals will not be identified and will not be shared.
