There is no specific housing legislation in relation to households that wish to transfer from housing provided by one housing authority to that of another authority. I am aware that some authorities facilitate mutual transfers on an informal basis. I am not aware of particular issues arising in this area but I will keep the matter under review in the context of future housing legislation.
