STATUS tenants' survey 2008

Your verdict: We’re getting better – but we’ve still got work to do!

Status is a statutory tenants’ survey that local authorities must carry out at least every three years. The survey is very important as the results will provide information about our performance, which will be used as part of the later performance assessment by the Audit Commission.

The survey was carried out by Ispos MORI, who sent about 3000 questionnaires to the randomly chosen tenants.

The survey findings confirm that your priorities are:

  • repairs (81 percent)
  • the overall quality of your home (47 percent)
  • dealing with anti-social behaviour (44 percent)
  • keeping you informed (36 percent)

You also said you that getting hold of the right person was easy, and that we were helpful in dealing with your problem.

But, you thought we could do better at telling you about things that might affect you as a tenant, and that we need to improve our response to your complaints about anti-social behaviour.

We will be looking at all the ways in which you said we could do better, over the next 12 months, to help us focus on where to improve your housing services.
