Appealing a decision
Can I appeal a housing decision?
If you are unhappy with a decision regarding your housing application to Hackney Council, you might be able to appeal the decision.
You can appeal the following decisions:
- About any decision made by the Council on the facts of your housing application
- About a decision that you are ineligible to be considered for housing
- If you disagree with our decision on your homelessness application
There are other circumstances when Hackney Council will provide an appeal or review process within their policies
- For statutory homeless cases, against a decision that an offer we have made is suitable
- Any household may request an internal review of an offer at the time that an offer is refused
- Against a grade or recommendation (where made) by our medical adviser
- Against a decision to remove an “A” priority grade
Hackney Council have an extensive complaints procedure and the full details are available from their website.
