Regulator launches independent inquiry into London social landlord ASHA
The Regulator of Social Housing has launched a formal independent inquiry into Ash-Shahada Housing Association Limited, a London-based landlord, over serious concerns about how it is run. The inquiry will look at possible conflicts of interest, whether the board and executive have the right skills, and whether housing assets have been misused. RSH will decide on further action once the independent findings are in and will publish the outcome.

What does it mean?
A regulator is now formally investigating how a housing charity-style landlord is run, and an outside expert will report back. Tenants of its homes may see changes depending on what the inquiry finds. The regulator will decide what to do next only after that report is published.
Who is affected?
Tenants of ASHA's social housing and supported accommodation, and the board and staff running the organisation.
