Consultation launched on Housing Ombudsman's proposed approach to Good Practice
Posted 26.03.24
Housing Ombudsman Service: Further reading
he Housing Ombudsman has launched a consultation for social housing landlords on its proposed approach for issuing Good Practice and potential topics.
The Social Housing (Regulation) Act 2023 gives the Ombudsman the power to issue guidance to scheme members on good practice in the carrying on of housing activities covered by the Scheme.
The overarching aim of Good Practice is to drive improvements in housing provision through learning from complaints. The Ombudsman's proposed approach is to encourage all landlords to self-assess at the point of issue rather than wait for a complaint about the topic area and an order from the Ombudsman to do so.
The consultation seeks feedback on the Ombudsman's principles of good practice and proposed approach to delivering good practice.
