Social Rented Housing: Tenancy Agreements
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether he has a policy on social tenants in high-value social housing passing on lifetime tenancies to their children.
Answered by Matthew Pennycook
The assessed value of a social rent property has no bearing on tenants’ rights to pass down their tenancy to their children. Those living in high-value social rent homes will be subject to the same succession rights set out in legislation as other social housing tenants on secure tenancies.
