Consultation closed 26 February 2012
The Greater Norwich Home Options partnership, which has governed how social housing in Norwich, Broadland and South Norfolk has been allocated since 2007, is to be dissolved in April 2012.
Norwich City Council has approved the creation of an interim Norwich home options service based on the current service to run from April 2012. This will require an allocations policy.
While the new policy is based on existing sub-regional policy, a consultation to consider some changes is being held in order to improve the service and make it more efficient.
