Request a review of your housing decision

Housing Register applicants have the right to ask for a review of certain decisions that West Northamptonshire has made about their application for housing or an offer of accommodation. 

A request for a review needs to take place within 21 calendar days of receiving a decision about their housing application.  

This includes a review of:

• decisions about refusing an application to join the Housing Register 
• the banding decision 
• offers of housing  
• decisions as to the facts of an applicant’s case which are likely to be or have been considered in whether to allocate accommodation to them 
• suitability of accommodation review 
• whether an allocation or a nomination constitutes a final offer of accommodation 
• decisions to remove an application from the Housing Register

If you would like to request a review, you can:

• write to the Housing Allocations Team, One Angel Square, Angel Street, Northampton, NN1 1ED
• email [email protected] 

State clearly that the request is a review under Housing Act 1996 (Part 6). The review will be completed by an officer that has not been involved in your case.

A written response will be provided to you within 56 days.
