PUBLISHED DESCRIPTION

What the notice says

A mixed-methods longitudinal research project looking at the impact of the Local Housing Allowance on household finances and circumstances. The research aims to provide evidence on the perceived impact that the LHA has had on claimants' ability to meet rent payments, find affordable housing, and on child poverty and employment outcomes. The research will also look at how landlords have interacted with the policy.
