Newcastle City Council will consult on bringing its housing services back in-house.

Senior councillors last night approved the move, which could free up £1m in extra revenues for investment in housing stock.

Under the proposed change, all services currently delivered by Your Homes Newcastle - the council’s arms-length management organisation - will become the council’s direct responsibility.

Cabinet member for a dynamic city, Irim Ali, said: ‘We are committed to making sure council tenants and leaseholders get the best possible service and I am sure that we can do this more effectively if all our housing services are brought together in one team.’
