Public Sector Body (PSB)
A local authority, health authority, new town corporation, the Commission for New Towns, a nationalised industry, a Government Agency, an urban development corporation, the Crown, a housing action trust and a residuary body.
For the purposes of the national housing agenda it excludes statutory emergency services. However the debate about whether a Registered Social Landlord (RSL) is or is not a public sector body has continued. At present they are not so regarded legally.
