Nottingham City Council has announced plans to buy back
more than 300 council houses to tackle the growing demand for social housing in
the city. The four-year scheme will involve more than 300 purchases and also
include newly-built homes, as well as houses and flats that have previously
been bought through the Right To Buy scheme. This scheme will be used to help
lighten the load on Nottingham's growing social housing waiting list and
homelessness problems. The purchases will be paid for using Right To Buy
replacement receipts and council borrowing. Read more on the Nottingham Post
website.
