Following publication of the Social Housing White Paper which
set out the Government's commitment to a much stronger regulatory
regime the Regulator of Social Housing is to meet with the ARCH
Tenant Group at their next meeting on 11 January 2021.
The meeting will be attended by Jonathan Walters, the Deputy
Chief Executive at the Regulator for Social Housing who will
outline the new role of the Regulator and the plans and timetable
for introduction of the new regulatory regime and what it will mean
for tenants and residents.
Tenant representatives on the ARCH Tenant Group are preparing a
list of questions for the Regulator in advance of the meeting and
if you have a question about the new regulatory regime that you
would like to put to the Regulator we would like to hear from you.
Simply email your question to john.bibby@arch-housing.org.uk
by no later than Monday 4 January.
We will provide feedback on the discussions with the Regulator
through the ARCH e-bulletin.
We are also pleased to announce that the Housing Ombudsman,
Richard Blakeway, has agreed to attend the March meeting of the
ARCH Tenant Group to outline the Housing Ombudsman's plans to
ensure that tenants and residents' complaints are dealt with
promptly and fairly.
