Money for nothing?

I understand from former colleagues of mine that some local authorities are paying landlords a bounty for each property they supply for for private letting to applicants. I've been told that these bountys can run into many hundreds of pounds. Of course though the authoritys are not inspecting these propertys and of course some of these propertys are in poor condition!

LA's aren't very quick to prosecute dodgy landlords who rent to tenants on HB as I think they consider those Landlords to be performing a service and housing people that they might have to otherwise. In a strange way you can't blame them I guess. Although I do obviously!
