We own 3 properties in total. 2 are vacant.

months?

0

1.C - How many of these properties have been vacant for longer than 6

2.A How many people do you currently have to date on your current council
housing waiting list? (6th March 2024)

6638

2.B How many homeless families and or individuals have you received from
London boroughs (out of area rehousing) in the last 5 years (2019, 2020,
2021, 2022, 2023)

- Additionally how many homeless families and or individuals have you
received from London boroughs (out of area rehousing) since the beginning
of 2024 (Jan 2024, Feb, 2024, March, 2024)

Data not held as we do not hold the data for referrals from London
Boroughs therefore North East Lincolnshire Council is unable to provide a
response for this question.

2.C How many people that declared themselves homeless to your council in
the last year, were not deemed a priority need and therefore were not
accepted onto your council housing waiting list?

N/A our allocations policy does not state applicants must be priority need
to access the housing register. Note that North East Lincolnshire
Council’s social housing stock was transferred through a Large Scale
Voluntary Transfer (LSVT) to a new registered provider of housing,
Shoreline Housing Partnership Ltd (now Lincolnshire Housing Partnership)
on the 21^st March 2005. If you would like to contact the Lincolnshire
Housing Partnership you can do so by email at:

If you believe that your request for information has not been handled in
accordance with the Freedom of Information Act, you have the right to
request an internal review by the Council. If you wish to request an
internal review, please write to us detailing the reasons why. Please be
clear about which elements of the Council’s response or handling of the
request you are unhappy with, and would like the Council to address during
the internal review process.  If following this you are still dissatisfied
you may contact the Office of the Information Commissioner.
