Local housing advice charity, Housing Rights has welcomed the publication by the Northern Ireland Audit Office (NIAO) of its report into ‘Welfare Reforms in Northern Ireland’.
Commenting on the report, Policy and Practice Manager, Kate McCauley said;
“Our experience as a housing advice organisation is increasingly evidencing the devastating housing impact of welfare reform. We therefore welcome the finding by the NIAO that welfare reforms in Northern Ireland are ‘likely to have a major impact on housing’.
