Shareholder Cabinet Sub-Committee Committee Member

Shareholder Cabinet Sub-Committee - Wednesday 1st October 2025 2.00 pm

The Shareholder Cabinet Sub-Committee convened to discuss and approve the Landlord Services Q1 Performance Report 2025/26 and a suite of Landlord Compliance Policies.

These actions follow a C3 grading issued by the Regulator of Social Housing in late 2024, which indicated serious failings in how Northamptonshire Partnership Homes (NPH) was delivering the outcomes of the Safety and Quality Standard on behalf of West Northamptonshire Council (WNC).
