Recommendation 14

Paragraph: 78
Require housing associations to consider rent increase impact on vulnerable tenants and use reserves.
Conclusion
We remain very concerned about the impact of rent increases on social housing tenants. These are some of the most financially vulnerable people in our society. We believe housing associations must bear this in mind when they are setting rent levels, and reflect on the levels of their reserves they may be able to use to hold down rents.
