This bill would force the Secretary of State to start talks with certain local councils about moving them from the national housing subsidy system to a local financing arrangement for council housing, called Council Housing (Local Financing Pathfinders). The aim is to have the councils switch over by April 2011, with provisions for related purposes connected to this change. It is at an early stage in Parliament and would need to progress through further readings and scrutiny to become law.
The bill has had its first reading and is now at the 2nd reading in the Commons (as of December 2010). It would need further readings and committee scrutiny, plus passage through the Lords, to become law.
