Agenda item - Mutual Exchange Incentive Scheme Proposal

(copy attached).

23.1    The Performance & Improvement Officer introduced the report and explained that tenants who are living in larger properties than needed and would like to move to a smaller property. The Mutual Exchange Incentive Scheme would pay tenants a maximum of £2500. He noted that money was set aside for the next financial year and that it was already available.

23.2    In response to Jason Williams, the Officer explained that Brighton & Hove City Council do not find exchanges. Tenants organise it online or through adverts in shop windows, however; the Mutual Exchange Incentive Scheme will not change how exchanges are found.

23.3    RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
