Taking proactive steps to improve standards in council homes

New laws have come into effect to strengthen how social housing is regulated, ensure standards are met and actions are taken against landlords where these are not. The council is already taking proactive steps to improve the quality of council homes in the borough. These steps include the expansion of our specialist cleaning team to deal with more cases of damp and mould.
