Housing Appeals
Appeals
You can ask us to review a decision we have made about:
- your eligibility to join the register
- the number of points you have been awarded
- removing your name from the register
If you think the decision is wrong you must write to the Council within 21 days of receiving the decision letter. A Senior Officer who was not involved in the original decision will review your case and you will be notified in writing of the outcome of the review.
Please note that you must put the appeal in writing.
Time Period
Most appeals are dealt within 56 days of receipt of your request. Each appeal is looked at on its own merit and individual circumstances considered.
Applicants will be notified of the outcome in writing. Those whose appeal is not upheld will be advised that there is no further right of appeal and ombudsman details are provided.
