STAIRs: what social housing providers need to know about the new transparency requirements

The Social Tenant Access to Information Requirements (STAIRs) represent a significant shift in the regulatory landscape for private registered providers (RPs) of social housing. Introduced as part of the government's broader drive to improve transparency and accountability in the sector, STAIRs will give social housing tenants of RPs new rights to access information about how their homes and estates are managed; these rights being broadly comparable to those already available to tenants of local authorities under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA).
