Rejected petition Re-evaluate the Council House Programme
Due to the low stock of Council Housings We need to re-evaluate the Council House Programme as Council houses should only be available to those in desperate need of local support and/or because they are facing homelessness (as long as they haven’t made themselves intentionally homeless)
More details
Council houses should only be available to those in desperate need of local support and/or because they are facing homelessness and then when they’re back on their feet and are able to afford to either private rent or get a mortgage, the council should assist them with this & then this council house can then be made avaliable again for those who really need it. We Also need a large nationwide building programme to reimburse the Council House stock, & until then the Right To Buy should be stopped

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly how you would like the Government's policy on council housing to be changed.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
