	Housing association - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In England, housing associations are funded and regulated by the Housing Corporation, a non-departmental public body or quango that reports to the Department for Communities and Local Government.
		The NHF (formerly the National Federation of Housing Associations) claimed that at the start of 2003 they had around 1400 non-profit housing organisations in their membership, owning or managing approximately 1.8 million homes across England.
		Housing associations increased in importance over the last decades of the 20th century due to reforms to council housing brought in by the Thatcher government, when rules were introduced that prevented councils subsidising their housing from local taxes.

	Housing associations' use of minority ethnic building contractors and services
		Some housing associations had been prepared to vary or waive formal requirements for entry to approved lists of contractors, and there were occasional examples of negotiated rather than tendered contracts, and of nomination of subcontractors.
		By contrast, however, some housing association officers suggested that it would not be possible to depart from normal tendering practices or to interfere in the choice of subcontractors without incurring unacceptable financial risks.
		There were twelve associations for which the research obtained precise numbers of fl-run firms on approved development lists; half of these had only one fl-run firm on their list or none at all.
