Social housing stock" />Since 2006, there was a large scale voluntary transfer of all Sefton Council’s social housing to One Vision.
Sefton Council still has a public law duty to accept applications from any member of the public, for an allocation of social rented housing and must hold a housing register.
Since 2012 the Council has been part of the Merseyside sub regional social housing allocations scheme known as Property Pool Plus.
Sefton Council has a number of nomination agreements in place with Registered Providers of Social Housing with stock in the borough, which allows people who have applied to the Council for an allocation of social rented housing, to be allocated an available property.
