The point is, a landlord who treats housing like any other commodity like car repairs, or serving beer, should not be a landlord in the first place. They are out of their depth.
It actually is once you're of adult age, that's all you need to put on the form. It has been spoken about as an issue in the social housings system for years to the extent that the prioritisation of homeless for social housing was being questioned. Owen Keegan spoke about it as still being a problem last year.
You need to decide whether being a landlord is a business or a social service
If it's a business, then it should be strictly treated as such. It is entirely unreasonable to expect any private business to prioritise social need over the financial health of that business.
Its why we have government departments dealing with it.
Its a social service,
It is a business
We are in danger of splitting hairs here. Keegan was involved with, and referring to, emergency accommodation as far as I recall.
We have government departments dealing with the licensed trade, does that make the pubs a social service? How about the banks?
Remember the authorities being ordered to allocate no less than 50% of their long-term social housing spots to those registering as homeless?
My intention was to say that the provision of housing is a social service
Either way, to be registered as homeless and qualify for social housing, it takes more than "We had a fight...".
I think Owen Keegan & Conor Skehan are far better placed than either of us, so I'll take their word over yours
think this IT report summarizes the point very well, i
it agrees he was stating facts when talking about people gaming the system to obtain social housing.
She is right. It's a disgrace subsidising landlords like this.
