The Regulator of Social Housing (RSH) currently takes an active approach to regulating housing associations’ compliance with regards to ‘economic’ regulatory standards. Up until now however, the RSH has been constrained in its approach to compliance around ‘consumer’ standards, including: service delivery, safe homes, and tenant involvement. This is about to change.
From April 2024, under the forthcoming Social Housing Regulation Bill, housing associations and stock-holding local authorities will be required to demonstrate their adherence to consumer standards.
This masterclass was designed to help local authorities, who have up until now faced little active regulatory focus, prepare for proactive consumer regulation and inspection.
