The Group discussed a report asking for an amendment to the Rent and Lettings Policy to include a Furnished Tenancy Scheme, and the terms of the proposed scheme.

 

They noted that the rent for a furnished tenancy would be slightly higher than for an unfurnished tenancy, and that the housing company should offer information about the reason for the difference in cost and whether it was eligible to be covered by benefits.

 

The Shareholder and Joint Venture Group agreed to approve an amendment to the Housing Group’s Rent and Lettings Policy to include a Furnished Tenancy Scheme as set out in the report and its appendices.
