Housing Standards

The Housing Act 2004 gives local authorities the power to enforce housing standards across the borough. Landlords must ensure that their rented properties meet this standard which is described in the Housing Acts and Housing Health and Safety Rating System. Failure to comply with the act may lead to criminal prosecution.
