- Answer
-
No bids were made by Luton borough council for the Housing Corporation’s Affordable Housing Programme (AHP) 2005-06 or 2006-08 these being the first opportunities for local authorities to bid for Housing Corporation funding after the change in legislation following the Housing Act 2004 which allowed bodies not registered with the Housing Corporation to bid for funding.All bids for the Luton borough council area were made by registered social landlords and other developers. The following tables show accepted new build bids for Housing Corporation Affordable Housing Programme funds over the last five years and for the last bidding round of 2006-08. The tables identify which client group these schemes have been primarily identified for. To be successful bids needed to meet the criteria set out in the answer given on 3 July 2006 to my hon. Friend’s question 80517, in particular meeting Regional Housing Board priorities.
