The government has proposed scrapping its commitment to
replace homes sold through the Right to Buy on a like-for-like basis and
instead using a new measurement that would include those built by housing
associations. In 2012 the government pledged to replace homes sold as a result
of the additional discounts on a one-for-one basis, but it began missing the
commitment earlier this year. More than 66,000 council homes have been sold
under the Right to Buy since 2012, while just 17,911 replacements have been
started or acquired. Ministers have now published a consultation on the use of
receipts from Right to Buy sales. Download the consultation from the Gov UK
website.
