78 Consultative Framework pdf icon PDF 183 KB

To consider the framework for dialogue and consultation between the Integrated Housing Board and key housing stakeholders in Haringey.

Minutes:

The Board received a report that set out proposals in relation to the establishment of a framework for dialogue and consultation between the Board and key housing stakeholders in the Borough.

 

It was intended that, if adopted, framework would be used as part of the consultation process in relation to the new Housing Strategy.

 

The framework would provide three Stakeholder Forums:

 

  • Landlords Forum
  • RSL/Developer Forum
  • Advice Agencies Forum

 

Concern was raised that tenants living on estates were not engaged during consultation processes and it was suggested that the process for consultation set out in the Haringey Compact should be used as an example of good practice.

 

The Board was advised that Homes for Haringey was currently carrying out a door to survey of local residents and that this approach had been successful in engaging people. It was indicated that the information gathered as part of this could be shared with Partners.

 

Members of the Board were asked to forward any queries or comments in relation to the Strategy to Chris Wood, Strategic and Community Housing Services: chris.wood@haringey.gov.uk

 

RESOLVED:

 

That the approach, development and implementation of the consultative framework, as outlined in the report, be endorsed.
