Does the HBFI have measures in place to ensure the schemes it funds fulfil any social and moral obligations? Does it ensure fair rents are charged? At the end of the day, this is taxpayers' money and the HBFI is funding developers to build developments that, in some instances, are rented on the private market. Does it have measures to ensure it is not participating in a mechanism that penalises people for being in a position whereby they have to rent?
