TSA sets the scene for a new world of social housing regulation
The Tenant Services Authority want to know what you think of the national standards they’ve drawn up for social housing landlords. They’re based on what residents and landlords have told the TSA it was important to get right.
The TSA's consultation is open until 5 February 2010.
This new approach to regulation will see greater emphasis placed on the relationship between landlords and their residents at the local level - one where residents are at the heart of shaping, influencing and monitoring the services they receive.
There are three parts to the TSA's consultation:
- A new regulatory framework for social housing in England
- Guidance on the use of powers under the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008
- TSA consent to disposals
They have also produced a summary of the main consultation paper and a simple foldout version of the standards. If you’d like to respond to their consultation, please read the three main consultation documents, as the summary and foldout won’t give you enough detail to comment fully.
