The Scottish Social Housing Regulator regulates to protect the interests of people who receive the services of social landlords.
They have recently published a guide to their work – How we regulate: A guide for tenants and service users
This short, summary guide lets people know more about:
They have also produced two short videos about who they are and what they do and how to raise a concern about a social landlord.
They are also working with British Sign Language Scotland (BSL) to make a version of the guide for BSL users and will be launching this soon.

Significant Performance Failure (SPF)
The Regulator has set out in their Regulatory Framework what they mean by an SPF. An SPF is where a landlord:
» consistently and repeatedly fails to achieve outcomes in the Scottish Social Housing Charter or outcomes agreed locally with tenants; or
» has not reported its performance annually to its tenants or the annual reported performance does not reflect actual performance; or
» has materially failed to meet the Standards of Governance and Financial Management; and
» has acted, or failed to take action, in a way which puts tenants’ interests at risk and this significantly affects a number of the landlord’s tenants.
More information is available in their leaflet Significant Performance Failures.
