How we're regulated
We're regulated by the Regulator for Social Housing (RSL).
Tenant Satisfaction Measures
Tenant Satisfaction Measures are a recent regulatory requirement.
Registered social housing landlords have a duty to collect performance information in line with Tenant Satisfaction Measures as required by the Regulator of Social Housing.
All registered social housing landlords, including Bristol City Council must:
- Collect performance data in line with the Tenant Satisfaction Measures from April 1, 2023.
- Annually submit performance results against the Tenant Satisfaction Measures to the Regulator of Social Housing, commencing June 2024.
- Annually publish performance against specified Tenant Satisfaction Measures, from September 2024.
The Tenant Satisfaction Measures are intended to help empower social housing tenants to scrutinise their landlord's performance and in holding their landlords to account.
