Increasing the delivery of social housing is a priority for this Government. In this context, delivery mechanisms, including the repair and leasing scheme are kept under constant review.

Action 20.9 of the Housing for All plan commits to support local authorities to drive expanded take-up of the enhanced repair and leasing scheme. Further information on enhancements to the scheme will be available shortly.
