TMOs were introduced to provide a much more involved form of participation, where the management of council homes can be delegated to tenant-led associations. A TMO is an independent, legally recognised organisation set up by tenants to manage their estate. This means that the tenants still have the rights and security of being council tenants but they make all the day-to-day decisions about the management of their homes.
