Veterans get social housing priority in rule change
Councils will now have to put veterans at the top of the list for social housing and waive rules requiring a local connection.
Pleased to see the Government finally acting in this area: the 'local connection' test was always especially hard on veterans. We should be doing everything we can to help ensure those who serve, and forces families, can access housing.
