Labour’s Housing Minister John Healey today confirmed a good deal for council tenants after he announced the halving of guideline rent increases for the 2010/11 financial year. In doing so, John Healey emphasised that he remained committed to ensuring rents remain fair and affordable, and that the reduction would not lead to steep increases in future years. The move means that for the second year running, the Government has taken steps to keep down council tenants’ rents.
