Written by leading practitioners in the field, this book is a comprehensive and authoritative guide to the legal obligations of local authorities and social housing providers in relation to the provision of permanent and temporary housing accommodation, and the rights of those seeking such accommodation.

Housing Allocation and Homelessness: Law and Practice provides a uniquely balanced coverage of both allocation of social housing and homelessness, providing practical guidance on the statutory framework and how the legislation works in practice.
