Following the decision by the Executive (May 2003, Minute 5) to select a number of Registered Social Landlords (RSLs) to be the preferred partners of the Council in developing and managing new affordable homes, received a report proposing to add additional RSLs to the panel of preferred partners.
Appendix A of the report was withdrawn.
Agreed, in order to strengthen the Council’s ability to deliver high quality new affordable homes and to bring about successful regeneration programmes:
1. To admit London & Quadrant Housing Trust and Presentation Housing Association to the preferred RSL partners panel, subject to the condition in paragraph 2.1 of the report.
2. To include Southern Housing Group in the RSL panel, subject to good progress over the next 6 months with the new housing development at St Ann’s.
3. That RSLs are fully committed to the Council’s Community Priorities and signed up to the protocol for RSLs before any sites are allocated to them.
