Consultees
The Draft Housing Strategy will require a
wider consultation process with three core audiences:
• Borough residents, including tenants and leaseholders of the
Council; tenants, leaseholders and shared owners of Registered
Providers (i.e., housing associations); and residents of other
tenures in the borough
• Council staff both within the Housing and Regeneration
Directorate and wider staff membership, particularly staff
responsible children and the elderly agendas as well as staff
responsible for vulnerable adults such as people with dependency
issues, victims of domestic violence
• Key agencies responsible for approving and/or delivering the
Housing Strategy document, e.g., Mayor of London (who will need to
ensure that the local strategy is in broad compliance with his own
regional document); private and affordable housing developers;
private landlords; providers of supported housing services;
voluntary sector agencies; local advisory agencies.
