Request
I'm requesting information on any rent-prediction or rent-gathering algorithms used by the council. Please provide me a list of tools, either in-house or through a third-party agent, the council uses to:
• Analyse the cost of housing in the area
• Predict a tenant's ability to pay rent
• Facilitate a tenant paying their rent
I would also like a copy of the most recent risk assessment of any algorithms that are used.
