People barred from rehousing

Rehousing Review List

The Rehousing Review List (RRL) is a list of names and addresses of people who are not allowed to get a Manchester council home (including a Northwards home) because of something they have done.

It's a strict but reasonable policy:

  • it won't affect any legal rights to rehousing that we owe you
  • we don't want to make things worse if you're suffering violence, fear or harassment
  • everyone on the RRL has the chance to know exactly why they are listed, and what to do to get off the list
  • there is a clear and easy way to appeal against being on the list
  • we review the policy's effect regularly
How would the RRL affect you?

If you apply for a council home in Manchester (including a Northwards home), and your name is on our Rehousing Review List, we may not offer you a home until you have put things right - or until we're satisfied that your behaviour has changed and you will be a suitable tenant.
