The Rental Accommodation Scheme (RAS) is a social housing support introduced to cater for the accommodation needs of persons who are in receipt of long term rent supplement.
Persons normally must be in receipt of continuous rent supplement for a minimum period of 18 months, and be assessed as having a long term housing need.
The RAS scheme is being administered by all local authorities and is intended to provide an additional source of good quality rented accommodation for eligible persons.
