    I see the houses came fully furnished and some of the people who moved into the houses are selling the furniture according to the front page of the Nationalist.



    They should have there leases terminated straight away for that ****.

    But furnished houses mean they cant claim the special needs grant.

    I think the reality is that most of the families who got those houses had been living in other houses and had their own furniture and found themselves in a position where they ended up with 2 lots of stuff.

    That's not to excuse what they did. The council should be reimbursed for the sold goods where applicable but how likely is that to happen?

    I would be more concerned with how those houses were allocated tbh.

    I do a good bit of work for the Council and alot of people need these thing some don't. But it would make you sick what people get and they don't need it. I have seen first hand people getting the grant from social welfare and everything is in the house already.

    Are these houses run by the council's in question or by some other housing authority. Also I took a spin up there and there are a lot of houses empty to the right as you drive in, are these all allocated to the council waiting list too?.

    it's a housing association that's running them but houses are allocated by the council.
    the others are mostly council being allocated this/last week however I believe there are to be 8 private rented in the whole estate
