Housing Ballot Outcome - Published: 20/03/2012

STRICTLY EMBARGOED UNTIL 00.01 WEDNESDAY 21 MARCH 2012

Flintshire County Council has taken a principled neutral stance on the ballot and has not sought to influence tenants one way or the other. The tenants have made their views known - this is local democracy in action.

The tenants of Flintshire have decided to opt to stay with the Council, with 88% of tenants voting in the ballot voting no to a transfer from the Council, and 12% of tenants voting yes.

This is the highest turnout in a housing ballot in Wales with 71% of tenants using their vote.

The County Council will be recommended to accept the outcome of the ballot at its coming meeting on 27 March.

The Council could see this outcome as a resounding vote of trust and confidence in it as a landlord providing good quality housing and support services for local people. Our performance has improved significantly in recent years and this is clearly recognised by our tenants as our customers.

We will now discuss with Welsh Government how we can bridge the funding gap and achieve its policy of the Welsh Housing Quality Standard.
