Allocation Policy Review

Closed 31 Jan 2024

Opened 8 Jan 2024

Overview

Letting our homes, tell us what you think 

Midlothian Council has 7393 homes for rent, and when one of these becomes available we use the allocation policy to determine who is in most need to make best use of the home. 

We are proposing to introduce a new allocation policy. 

Why your views matter

Please take a few minutes to complete our questionnaire which you can also fill in at one of our drop-in events listed below. Your views will be included in our report for councillors to consider in March 2024.

 For question 7, please refer to the Your local Community Council | Community councils | Midlothian Council

Please complete the survey by 31 January 2024

 

What happens next

This feedback will now be reviewed and a paper drawn up of the findings. This paper will then be consulted on by council and feedback will be availble via the Council website and social media channels.
