Almost three quarters (73%) of applicants to the National Tenant Council (NTC), which will be an important part of the National Tenant's Voice, believe that the NTC will have a significant impact on social housing over the next few years. The survey, which questioned over 250 applicants, also revealed that the majority of tenants who had applied to sit on the Council had primarily done so in order to drive policy changes nationally (77%). The nationwide campaign to find 26 social housing tenants to sit on the 50-strong NTC attracted over 1200 applicants. The recruitment is being led by Hays Social Housing in association with Communities and Local Government (CLG), and an advisory tenant-majority project group.
