Complaints & Serious Concerns
What is a serious concern
When the Association:
- has acted in a way which puts tenants’ interests at risk and this affects, or could affect, a group of tenants or all tenants; or
- repeatedly fails to achieve outcomes in the Social Housing Charter or outcomes agreed with tenants; or
- has not reported its performance annually to its tenants or has reported it inaccurately; or
- does not meet our standards for how an RSL should govern itself and manage its finances; or
- has not met any targets we have set it.
Examples of a serious concern (please note these examples are not exhaustive)
When the Association:
- fails to consult with tenants on a rent increase; or
- regularly fails to do gas safety checks when it should; or
- regularly does not do repairs when it should; or
- does not allow tenants to apply for another house; or
- does not respond formally to complaints.
Serious concerns of this nature are considered to be a Significant Performance Failures (SPF) under the 2010 Act.
