Tenants Services Authority (TSA)

YOUR CHANCE TO HAVE YOUR SAY ABOUT
STANDARDS IN SOCIAL HOUSING
The Tenants Services
Authority (TSA) is the new regulator of homes owned by housing
associations and Co-ops. From spring 2010, they are likely to be
responsible for local council and arm’s-length management
organisation (ALMO) landlords too.
The first thing the
TSA needs to
do is draw up a brand new set of standards for all social
landlords. These standards are very important as the
TSA will be
monitoring how landlords do in achieving them – and taking action
against landlords who don’t.
The
TSA
is listening to tenants
across England to help them understand what you want to see in the
new standards. This is called the National
Conversation.
This is your opportunity
to help set the standards for all social landlords and make sure
that services for tenants continue to improve. So get
involved.
There are lots of ways
you can take part in the national conversation. The TSA will be holding a series
of regional events for a number of tenants and other events for
landlords. You can also fill out a questionnaire to send back to
the TSA – if
you would like a copy of the questionnaire please contact Sam
Spencer, Resident Involvement Officer on 01664 502481 or email
sspencer@melton.gov.uk.
