Vote 34 - Housing, Planning and Local Government (resumed)

Ms Deirdre Mason:
It is a move from rent supplement to HAP. We do not see tenancies moving from RAS to HAP. RAS and HAP are meeting a long-term housing need and the increase in HAP tenancies includes some transfers from rent supplement and people on the waiting list on rent supplement but there are additional people in the private rental sector coming into HAP after being in social housing.
