I see amendments to reflect that the AHBs can provide ancillary services other than just provision of housing, and they are to incorporate that. I also raised the question on the Affordable Housing Act where we legislated for community-led housing. With regard to the strategy for housing needs and assessments by local authorities, they would also engage with AHBs to determine the housing need. Will this change make it easier for community-led housing or co-ops to be recognised by the AHBRA?
