What the buyer says
The Council has a contract in place for a system for housing, benefits and council tax which commenced in April 2022 and is expiring by the end of March / April 2027. These are key line of business systems which ensure the Council is able to manage the Housing functions and the administration of Revenues and Benefits in an effective and efficient way.
