Local Authorities - Housing

Sector Leader: Jonathan Manning

Local Authorities have a public duty to provide and manage social housing. In this respect correct application of the Local Government Act is critical in enabling local authorities to carry out public functions.

Through our extensive writings on housing law, our close working relationship with the Law Commission and those of our members who are leading academics on the subject, we are recognised as leading experts on housing and property law.

• Possessions Actions, Housing Act 2004 Update
• Disrepair
• Homelessness
• Anti-social behaviour
• Immigration and Housing
