Reforms to Northern Ireland's housing allocation system could help associations prevent anti-social behaviour and build safer and more sustainable communities.
Patrick Thompson, Interim Chief Executive of Northern Ireland Federation of Housing Associations, told Belfast Live that anti-social behaviour should be addressed by the sector and outlined the "tweaks" to the housing system that they believe will benefit the lives of their tenants.
Belfast Live has highlighted a number of housing association residents who feel that not enough was being done to tackle issues in their properties, which included violent incidents, drug abuse and disruptive flats.
