Following a new approach introduced by the Social Housing (Regulation) Act 2023, the aim of these changes is to strengthen the accountability of social landlords for providing safe homes and quality services, and treating residents with respect. The Regulator of Social Housing will now be able to carry out integrated and active regulation across all standards, and for all types of landlords, including (where relevant) local authorities.

In this session, we heard from the Regulator on what you need to be doing to adapt to the new standards regime from 1 April.

Your speakers:

• Will Perry, director of strategy, Regulator of Social Housing
• Chair: James Prestwich, director of policy and external affairs, Chartered Institute of Housing
