Council To Set Up Housing Association For Right To Buy Funds


Enfield Council is set to establish a housing association to spend funds it receives from council tenants exercising their Right to Buy. The Council is expected to vote in favour of lending £250,000 to Red Lion Homes to cover start-up costs and transferring sites to the new association, which aims to provide 500 homes in six years.
