Change 'right to acquire' house scheme date from March 31 1997 to March 31 1994

Petition Details

Myself and other tenants have been living in our homes for many years and we are now in a position to buy our homes, but the date of transfer prohibits that. Through researching to buy my home, I have found that some properties were transferred after 1997.

Additional Information

We would like this paragraph amended from
"transferred from a local council to a housing association after 31 March 1997" to "transferred from a local council to a housing association after 31 March 1994".

Changing the date from 1997 to 1994 gives residents of housing associations who would not qualify, the opportunity to purchase their home. Many of these residents have lived in their homes for several years and only the date of transfer or purchase is preventing them from acquiring.
