More than eight million tenants across the country will benefit from new standards the TSA has set for all social housing landlords. In the biggest shake up of social housing regulation in decades, the six standards, drawn up with tenants and landlords up and down the country, will come into effect from 1 April and cover how landlords need to deal with issues such as tenant involvement and empowerment, repairs and maintenance, rents, quality of accommodation, complaints and anti-social behaviour. The new standards will apply to nearly 1800 social housing providers in England which include housing associations, ALMOs, councils and co-operatives. This means for the first time tenants will get similar levels of protection and services regardless of who their landlord happens to be.
