Allocations Scheme

The Housing register is divided into five bands ranging from A (maximum preference) to E (no preference). The purpose of the bands is to

  • ensure that those with the most urgent need for accommodation are given the greatest priority, and
  • to make the most efficient use of available properties.

Further information about the five bands and what the criteria are can be found in the document below.
