If people are housed through private landlords under the new housing assistance payment, HAP, will they be automatically removed from the housing waiting list? Will they have to apply to get on the transfer list, rather than it being automatic? If that is the case, does that represent a false equation of the HAP with people's housing needs being met, for example, through the provision of social housing?
