Long Awaited Stock Transfer Guidance Published

Long awaited guidance on stock transfers from local authorities was published by the government today, paving the way for transfers to go ahead. A consultation on the housing transfer manual, which lays out the procedure for local authorities to transfer stock, closed in September. The manual does not deviate from the recommendations in the consultation paper, introducing a mandatory requirement for councils to consider ‘social policy objectives’.  Download the Manual from the GovUK website.
