Home loss and disturbance payments are made to Council tenants if their home has been selected for demolition.
If the demolition is part of an approved scheme, arrangements will be made for rehousing, with tenants and residents being eligible to receive home loss and disturbance payments.
Disturbance payments
These payments are provided by a BACS (bank transfer). The amount paid out at present is £1,750 in total.
The tenant has the choice to use this disturbance payment for whatever they wish although the payment is designed to help with removal costs.
As soon as the tenant has moved out and all keys to the property returned, the payment will be made to as soon as possible.
