QUESTION: Cllr. Karen Warren

"To ask the Manager what progress has been made in respect of paying back interest to applicants who applied under the Council’s Affordable Housing Programme, especially in the Russell Square area, to state the total number of applicants who have sought compensation from the Council in respect of this development, if and when the matter has been resolved by the Housing Department, and if he will make a statement on the matter?"

 

REPLY

To date two requests have been received by the Council in respect of refunds of interest on monies paid to the Council for deposits on properties in Russell  Square.  These deposits were receipted and lodged to our General Current Account (on which interest is not paid) as would be normal practice.  Arrangements are  being made to refund the amounts due.
