  • Housing Association Residents Extend Rent and Service Charge Strikes Date: 1St June 2021
    Release: Immediate Release Subject: Housing Association Residents Extend Rent and Service Charge Strikes Date: 1st June 2021 A group of tenants and residents are to begin a coordinated rent and service charge strike from Thursday 1st July 2021 in protest over various landlords’ failings, and because of the extreme barriers they have faced when trying to engage their landlords to resolve their issues. Within a week of launching the support group, membership had grown to fifty. Complaints from the group range from incorrect service charge statements, insufficient information about the service charges, disrepairs relating to their homes or estates, and failures to make reasonable adjustments for those with disabilities. The tenants and residents within the coordinating group all reside in housing association properties. Attempts to address the issues directly with their landlords, and in some cases through other routes have been futile. One member of the group commented: “I am in despair as to how to stop these atrocious companies any other way. We’ve experienced diabolical rip-offs, incompetence and lies. They have damaged our lives for years and years. Many thousands of tenants across the sector experience endless failed attempts to get their problem sorted out. We are ground down. “I honestly can't see how anything other than withholding money is going to stop them. Even when the Social Housing White Paper is made law, I don’t believe that there is any other way to hold these massive, powerful corporations to account” Councillors and members of Parliament complain that they experience the same difficulties as tenants and residents when trying to engage with the associations, or are misled about the work done to address issues.

  • Role of This Document
    1 Role of this document This Statement of Participation details the engagement and consultation process that has been undertaken during the preparation of the London Borough of Tower Hamlets’ Core Strategy. It has been prepared in accordance with Regulation 24 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Development) (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2008. The Statement sets out: 1) The approach the Council took to engagement and consultation throughout the preparation of the plan 2) The process undertaken for the two formal rounds of consultation on the emerging options and alternatives for the Core Strategy. Specifically, this paper details for the two consultation periods: The people, groups and organisations invited for consultations; How they were invited to be involved; A summary of the main issues raised by the consultees; and How the issues raised have been addressed in the Core Strategy. Background PPS12 – Local Spatial Planning requires that the production of core strategies should follow the Government’s principles for community engagement in planning. Involvement should be: appropriate to the level of planning; from the outset – leading to a sense of ownership of local policy decisions; continuous – part of ongoing programme, not a one-off event, with clearly articulated opportunities for continuing involvement; transparent and accessible – using methods appropriate to the communities concerned; and planned – as an integral part of the process for making plans. It also requires that ‘(T)he council must produce a Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) which should follow these principles. The involvement of the public in preparing the core strategy must follow the approach set out in the SCI.’ Council’s Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) was adopted in February 2008.
