Funds collected by local authorities through the sale of local authority houses or other housing-related activities, are normally used by those authorities for maintenance and improvement to their housing stock. This can include replacing windows and doors, improving heating systems and any other appropriate maintenance/improvement activities the local authority deems appropriate.
