Description
This whole-of-system regulatory review included consideration of the effectiveness of regulation as an accountability mechanism for public, community and affordable housing tenants, and the community. The review also considered how the regulatory system can best support social and affordable housing growth and transformation over the coming decades.
Seven key reforms
- Placing current and prospective tenants at the centre of the social and affordable housing system.
- Streamlined and consistent social housing regulation.
- Regulation that drives better standards of social housing delivery.
- Complaints and dispute resolution arrangements that work for tenants.
- Regulation that drives accountability for the use of public funds.
- Regulation that supports sustainability and growth.
- An independent regulator for the social and affordable housing sector.
- A system that supports those eligible but unable to obtain social housing.
