What will the role of Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs) be?
AHBs will be working with local authorities and property owners to identifyproperties and to bring the properties up to the required standard.
AHBs may sign lease arrangements with property owners, on behalf of, and with the agreement of local authorities. These properties will then be managed by the AHBs on behalf of the local authorities. The tenants who will occupy these properties will be social housing tenants.
