CIH POLICY | Cymru | N. Ireland | Scotland
Our policy work is hugely varied. We do some blue skies thinking about the future, we shape government agendas, and we support the practical implementation of new policies. We know that if we’re going to be successful we have to involve a wide range of people and our proposals have to be grounded. It’s an inspiring and exciting place to work, as long as you have the tenacity to see things through – shaping policy can take a long time. Seeing things change for the better makes it all worth while.
CIH RESPONSE TO TSA's NEW REGULATORY FRAMEWORK CONSULTATION
CIH have responded to the Tenant Services Authority's (TSA) proposals for a new regulatory framework. Following feedback from our members, we have asked the TSA to make some things clearer, such as how Audit Commission inspections will work in the new framework and how equality and diversity will cut across all of the standards. But overall, we are positive about the TSA's approach.

TSA REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
From April 2010, the Tenants Services Authority (TSA) will regulate all landlords of affordable housing including housing associations, ALMOs and local authorities in England. TSA set out its proposals for regulation in November 2009, forming part of a statutory consultation that will run until early 2010. You can follow the latest developments by following the link below:
