A circular letter (SHIP 2010.07 Leasing Clarification) has recently issued from my Department clarifying arrangements to facilitate housing authorities who wish to lease single or small numbers of properties from individual owners, including previously occupied housing. This circular letter is subject to the conditions of the original leasing initiative circular letter (N3-09 Leasing Arrangements) and authorities must satisfy themselves on issues such as housing need, tenure mix and value for money.

Property holders should contact the housing section of their relevant local authority if they wish to be considered for the scheme.
