Meeting Housing Quality Standards
Public housing providers need to meet regulated Healthy Homes Standards by 1 July 2023. We’re interested in how different providers work out whether they meet those standards, and if not, how they decide how to meet – or go beyond – the standards. We’ll also be asking what providers know about the WHO Housing and Health guidelines, and whether they’ve looked at how well their housing meets those guidelines.
Where providers have taken different approaches to the standards and guidelines, we’ll be looking at whether those differences are reflected in differences in tenant wellbeing or indoor temperatures.
