Tenancy Agreement Review 2025

This consultation is now closed. All responses will be considered and changes will be made to the Tenancy Agreement where appropriate. An update will be posted to this page shortly.

West Lancashire Borough Council (WLBC) is updating its Tenancy Agreement to make sure it works well for everyone who lives in a council home, as well as reflecting current WLBC policies and priorities. As part of this process, we want to hear what you think about the changes.

We’ve worked closely with a group of involved tenants to make sure the revised Tenancy Agreement is clear, relevant and covers important topics.

We are also producing a comprehensive Tenants Handbook to sit alongside the Tenancy Agreement - this will offer more detail around policies and helpful advice to support our tenants in making the best use of their homes.

Now we’d like all tenants to read the updated agreement and tell us if there’s anything else we should change, that you disagree with or that you feel is missing. You can find the document here and in the document section of this page. Please fill in the survey below to share your thoughts. Your feedback will help us shape the final version before it is presented to Landlord Services Working Group and Policy & Resource Committee for approval. Once the document is agreed there will be a formal consultation process in Spring/Summer 2026, under the terms of the Housing Act 1985 (as amended).

If you have questions that aren’t answered in the FAQ section, or if you want to get involved in future projects like this, email the Tenant Voice team at TenantVoice@westlancs.gov.uk.

You can also contact us if you need the survey or information in a different format.
