Tenancy Fraud is a term used to describe a range of different circumstances where council housing is obtained improperly or is misused or wrongly occupied. This is a matter for your local council.
Benefit Fraud is when someone claiming Housing Benefit and/or Council Tax Support intentionally fails to notify the council's benefit section when their circumstances have changed, or when they make a false statement to receive the benefit or support. This should be reported to your local council.
Whistle-blowing is a means of contacting councils' internal audit teams to report potential irregularity concerning the council. It may be a criminal act such as theft or fraud; it may be a failure to observe or breaches of the council's governing policies and procedures. Again this should be reported to your local council.
