Summary

The Government's commitment to bringing all council housing up to the Decent Homes Standard by 2010 was set out in Sustainable communities: building for the future.

Councils needing additional funding to improve their housing stock can choose between three options: Arms Length Management Organisations (ALMOs), Private Finance Initiative (PFI) and Stock Transfer. All these options involve the local authority separating its strategic housing function from its housing management function.

This guide aims to give tenants a brief understanding of ALMOs. Full details of ALMO policy and how a local authority can bid for additional funding can be found in Guidance on Arms Length Management of local authority housing (2004 edition) and the supplement to the Guidance on Arms Length Management June 2006.
