The council is reviewing its scheme to ensure it enables people to move into its homes in the fairest way. This is needed because there is not enough housing.

A second stage of the council’s consultation has started based on a revised draft allocation scheme following an initial survey. The latest deadline for comments on www.arun.gov.uk/haveyoursay is June 18.

A total of 581 responses – to 5,421 questionnaires – were received by Arun from applicants on its housing register last month during the first consultation.

Felpham resident Anthony Ferrett won a £50 prize draw for replying and the chance to put his views to the councillor in charge of housing, Roger Elkins.
