<p>The Government announced plans in October 2017 to set a long term rent deal for
councils and housing associations. The proposal is for increases to social housing
rents to be limited to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) plus 1 per cent for 5 years
from 2020.</p><p>The Government consulted on these proposals in the Autumn. Details
of the consultation are available online here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/rents-for-social-housing-from-2020-to-2021"

We are currently analysing the feedback and we aim to publish our response to the
consultation by the Spring.</p>
