Overview

There have been many recent changes in the way housing is organised nationally. For example, Housing Associations now have the power to issue fixed term tenancies, rather than lifetime tenancies. As set out in the Localism Act (2011), the Government requires that each Local Authority develops a Tenancy Strategy by November 2012. This Strategy will give guidance to local providers of social housing regarding the various changes that have been passed in law.

Before developing this Strategy, Richmond Council has commissioned independent researchers to develop an appropriate evidence base that maps the Borough's housing 'landscape'. This consultation is part of that evidence base because the views of local residents must be taken into account.
