Make housing associations accountable with strong penalties for failures.
Since the Audit Commission was replaced by the Regulator of Social Housing, housing associations have become less accountable. As a consequence there have been abuses of their powers with a failure to maintain their properties adequately. Tenants are often treated very poorly
Channel 4 dispatches programme on Sanctuary Housing was representative of what is going on in the sector. Without proper accountability social housing landlords will continue to fail their tenants.
