Request
I am making a Freedom of Information request.
Please could you tell me:
a. How many homes sold by the council under Right to Buy in the past 10 years (since 1/1/2016) are now being rented by the council as temporary accommodation
b. The total price the council sold these homes for (post-discount, actual money received by the council)
c. The total amount the council spends, per year, on renting these homes as temporary accommodation
d. If held, the total amount the council has spent on renting these homes as temporary accommodation
If you have a list of the homes, with their prices and annual cost as temporary accommodation, that would be helpful, though I understand you may not be able to provide exact addresses.
If I can clarify this request in any way, please do not hesitate to contact me.
