Community safety
We want to make sure that people in our communities can live peacefully and safely. So we don't want to offer homes to anyone who could be a risk to those communities. If someone has been convicted of a serious criminal offence we investigate the circumstances - if we think they could still be a risk to the community we put them on our 'Rehousing Review list'. They won't be offered a home until they can show us that they are no longer a risk. This policy helps protect our communities and allows people to get on with their lives in peace.
