Council Housing
- Question
- To ask the Deputy Prime Minister what evidence was provided to him by Sefton Council on the conduct of its tenants' ballot in August; and what assessment he made of whether such evidence justified a second ballot.
- Answer
-
Sefton Council shared with officials in the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister a file of alleged malpractices surrounding the conduct of the tenants' ballot in August 2005, the contents of which were noted. Officials in the ODPM did not undertake an assessment of whether such documentation justified Sefton Council's decision to hold a second ballot as that decision was entirely a matter for the authority.
