Housing Management, Consumers and Citizens

By: Liz Caincross,David Clapham,Robina Goodlad

Tenant participation has grown substantially over the last decade, following government legislation, advice from professional bodies and development agencies, and promotion by all major political parties. On few housing issues is there such concensus. Yet, in practice, it is obvious that participation can mean very different things in different contexts. This book explains why this is the case, and examines the growth of participation in the context of changes in the role of local authorities and their relationship with their electorates. These issues are examined in the first part of the book, which sets the context for exploring the roles of housing managers, councillors, tenants and tenant's associations in the second part. The book argues that the rise in arrangements for tenant participation masks considerable differences in the role played by tenants in different areas. These differences raise questions about the nature of power in the tenant-landlord relationship and more generally in the relationship between local government, citizens and consumers. These issues are examined in the final, third, part of the book.

Models of Practice in Housing Advice

By: Jo Dean,Robina Goodlad,Ann Rosengard

This report is based on research commissioned by the Department of the Environment with the aims of establishing the variety of patterns of housing advice services and identifying innovative practice. The research sought to assess the benefits of different models of advice provision in the local authority and voluntary sectors. The research arose from Government proposals to introduce legislation to place a duty on local authorities to secure the provision of housing advice services to assist people in finding accommodation and to prevent homelessness. This report is based on results from two surveys, 19 case studies, and an initial review involving interviews with national, regional and local agencies.
