Local Authority Housing Fund

The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government is administering the Local Authority Housing Fund, a scheme providing low-interest loans to councils to increase temporary accommodation supply and address homelessness. The policy is intended to complement longer-term affordable housing and social housing delivery, though concerns remain about the frozen Local Housing Allowance and competition between public bodies driving up accommodation costs. This is an active programme with ongoing recommendations for improved demand forecasting and sustainable accommodation planning.
