Right to buy prc properties

HI.. I am new to this site!!!
I put into buy my council house in 2007 under the 'Right to Buy' scheme. At that time I was given two discounts.
One... for being a council tenant (you get a percentage of how long you have been a tenant) and
Two...for having a defective house (Airey) (which is of none traditional construction).
I have recently put into buy again but have only been given one discount for being a tenant!!!!
The thing is if anyone can buy there council house and you live in a bricked house you would still get the same discounts where as I have to get mine bricked up at a cost of £45,000???
Can anyone please shed some light on this please????

Welcome!
The rules have changed on certain aspects of Right to Buy, have you clarified with the council or read their website?

Buying a property in the prc is a big risk - there is a huge property bubble about to burst any month now in China.0

I have a hunch the OP is talking about a different PRC than the Peoples Republic of China somehow0
