Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what steps his Department is taking to protect tenants of housing associations from unfair treatment by management companies.

Through the Social Housing Regulation Bill, we are introducing a range of measures to drive up standards in social housing. This includes facilitating the introduction of proactive regulation, meaning the Regulator of Social Housing will proactively seek assurances that providers are meeting the regulatory standards.
