Extend the ban on home eviction orders
Cllr Jo Bird takes action on homelessness.
“In addition, Wirral Council Housing Committee notes that the most common cause of homelessness is being evicted at the end of a private rented tenancy contract.
We urge the government to:
Extend its ban on eviction orders until all regions are in Tier One
Uphold their promise to end the use of Section 21 ‘no-fault’ eviction orders
Provide sustainable funding for the successful Housing First programme.
We would like to thank all housing officers on the Wirral for their particularly excellent work during this pandemic. We note that it was possible to get Everyone In during the pandemic.”
This motion was agreed unanimously by Wirral Council Housing Committee on 28.1.21.
