AnnotationAs part of its reform of Housing Benefit (HB), the Government has introduced a Local Housing Allowance (LHA), payable to low income tenants in the private rented sector. This proposal was included in the Welfare Reform Green Paper 'A new deal for welfare' (Cm 6730; TSO, 2006). The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has commissioned an evaluation of LHA in the nine Pathfinder local authorities, where it was introduced between November 2003 and February 2004: Brighton & Hove, Lewisham, Edinburgh, Leeds, Blackpool, Conwy, Coventry, North East Lincolnshire and Teignbridge, Devon. This report sets out the results of quantitative surveys of private landlords and letting agents that were part of the evaluation of the LHA. This and other future publications are available on the DWP website (at http://www.dwp.gov.uk/housingbenefit/lha/evaluatio... (RH).
