Regulator Publishes Fees Statement Setting Out Priorities

The Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) introduced a fee system this month under which providers pay a one-off registration fee of £2,500 and, if they own more than 1,000 homes, an annual fee of £4.72 per home. Providers with fewer than 1,000 homes pay a flat fee of £300 a year. The statement sets out the HCA’s regulatory priorities and gives a breakdown of how the regulator’s £7.5m budget will be spent. The regulator intends to make more use of automated data analysis, invest in its staff through recruitment and training and prepare to become a standalone regulator once the legislation has been passed in parliament.
