Compliance policies

The council has a duty to comply with regulations relating to seven areas of landlord health and safety.

These are:

  • asbestos
  • electrical
  • fire
  • gas
  • lifts
  • water safety
  • damp, mould and condensation

Asbestos safety is captured in a corporate policy, but separate housing service policies are required for the other areas. 

The policies listed below set out our approach to ensure full compliance with relevant legislation and regulations.
