Stock Condition
Tower Hamlets Council is addressing a C3 grading from the Regulator of Social Housing regarding its housing stock condition and non-decency rates.
Tower Hamlets Council is currently implementing an improvement plan after receiving a C3 grading from the Regulator of Social Housing (RSH) in August 2025. This grading indicates the council does not meet consumer standards for the physical state and maintenance of its housing stock, including a 20% non-decency rate, as a report to the Housing Management Cabinet Sub-Committee said in July 2025.
The council's "Your Voice, Our Action: Safe Homes, Great Services Programme1" aims to address the RSH's findings. The Housing & Regeneration Scrutiny Sub Committee reviewed the council's response to the critical RSH report in July 2025 and examined safety compliance and regulatory reports in April 2025. No further council meetings are currently scheduled on this topic.
