In July 2020, the Housing Ombudsman published its Complaint Handling Code. This sets out how landlords should respond to complaints effectively and fairly. The Code was reviewed one year later to strengthen provisions to support a positive complaint handling culture, with changes taking effect from 1 April 2022.
OUR SELF-ASSESSMENT
Landlords must carry out an annual assessment against the Code to ensure their complaint handling remains in line with its requirements and publish the results. Our latest self-assessment can be found here.
