Pay Da Man
The results of a recent survey conducted by consultancy firm Policis reveal that nine out of ten social housing tenants are happy to have their housing benefit paid straight to their landlord.
When asked if they agreed with the Governments proposed move to pay housing benefit to tenants directly, a massive 80% thought that was a bad idea.
Further supporting research was found by the NHF [The National Housing Federation]. 71% of tenants in social housing receive housing benefit and 92% have their rent paid straight to their landlord.
