Eg My local council.
It would be just lowering the existing income level.

Exactly the opposite to the housing strategy of my LA (Newcastle city council)

Quote:
This document outlines our pledge to tenants to defend social housing as a choice for single people and families. It sets out our opposition on the use and issue of flexible fixed term tenancies for general needs social housing by registered housing providers operating in the City. Newcastle City Council takes the view that lifetime tenancies in general needs social housing is the preferred tenancy type and not flexible short fixed term tenancies as outlined by the Coalition Government. We believe life time tenancies support both the tenant and the delivery of successful sustainable communities.
