Tenants Let Down By Redbridge Council
Redbridge Homes, the Council’s arms length housing management organisation, has again failed to achieve 2 stars in its Audit Commission Inspection. This means that £39 million of Government money, which has been awarded to Redbridge Council by the Government to make significant improvements to Redbridge Council tenants homes, will not be released.
Tenants will now have to await the results of another inspection before they will know if their homes will receive much needed improvements. This could take another 10 months to a year.
When the Tories took over Redbridge in 2002, Redbridge Housing had a 1 star rating, In 7 years the Tories have gone to 0 stars and now back to 1 star. Tenants have been badly let down.
Labour asks where is the Tories commitment to providing decent homes for our residents?
