National Tenant Scrutiny Committee to Hold TSA to Account

Following publication of the TSA’s regulatory standards, the four national tenant organisations are to set up a joint independent national tenant scrutiny committee. The committee will hold the TSA and other Government bodies to account for their part in ensuring the delivery of better services in the social housing sector, comprehensive empowerment opportunities and improved quality of life for tenants. The Committee aims to publicly and independently scrutinise the Government and its regulatory systems. It will seek to work in partnership with the National Tenant Voice and will consider using a range of approaches, such as gathering information from tenants and from others of good and bad performance; examining evidence of how the TSA is making a difference to the lives of tenants; setting up an Empowerment Watch website; and inviting representatives from public and other bodies to independent and publicly recorded tenant scrutiny hearings.
