Durham Court.

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest, if S.T
Council. Made some pathetic excuse about these so called condemned flats, and started housing a flock of illegal immigrants, considering there track record. Let's wait and see.

I understand your fears but it won't be the council who decides this it's the work of contractors working for the Home Office.

Serco are one of the contractors helping to find accommodation for the government. I’m sure the council must have thought, it would save them having to spend money on updating the building. They will have to be involved as they will be rehousing the Tennants.

Mears have the majority of the North East contracts, they will spend the minimum just like Serco and the others for maximimum return.
The council would have to be reimbursed for the building by the contractor, I wonder if it happened the council would get enough to pay for the demolition costs.

I sincerely hope this is not true but nothing would surprise me with this Council, also understand Illegal’s are being housed in Hebburn Hall !

The clue is in the title, ILLEGAL

It's all supposition and it will take a considerable time to rehouse the residents. A little can happen in that time.

I agree Brian. There's still around 40 residents still to be rehoused.
