There is no security of tenure in HAP. I spoke to a lady last Friday who became homeless last Saturday because there is no security of tenure in HAP if a landlord provides the correct documentation for a person to leave. It may be a way to get people out of homelessness, but that is a double-edged sword because some people become homeless on the back of notices to quit from HAP tenancies.
