Council Set To Scrap 10-Year Housing Wait

Plans to make residents wait 10 years before they can apply for council housing are set to be scrapped by Barking and Dagenham Council, whose Labour administration today announced its intent to cut the limit to three years. It comes just three months after the old executive – which was also Labour, but made up of different councillors – signed off the flagship policy at a cabinet meeting. If passed by the council’s Labour cabinet on August 4, the revised limit will come into place on November 3.  Read more on the Barking & Dagenham Post website.
