Cornerstone on Social Housing Fraud

Hello…I am Andy Lane and this is my first clumsy attempt at a blog to accompany ‘Cornerstone on Social Housing Fraud’, a book that I have written as part of the Cornerstone Barristers’ series.

I am keen to hear of successful initiatives in the field of social housing fraud, identify good practice and update readers on the relevant law – civil or criminal. As I get more confident (and time) I will seek to develop this site and its resources so that it becomes a (hopefully) interesting and useful source of information for those involved in its subject area – whether that be lawyers, local authority or housing association officers, or anyone with an interest in this field.

I am a public law and housing barrister at Cornerstone Barristers and was called to the Bar in 1999. Before that I worked in the voluntary and statutory sectors in the welfare benefit, debt and housing fields. I was also, for 4 years, a local authority councillor on Oxford City Council, which included a spell as chair of the Housing Committee. I am the author of ‘Cornerstone on Social Housing Fraud’ and am presently writing the 3rd Edition. View all posts by Andrew Lane
