About this register
The Scottish Housing Regulator publishes an annual engagement plan for every registered social landlord and council landlord, and — rarely — a statutory intervention report where it has used its powers under the Housing (Scotland) Act 2010. Required actions and intervention narratives are copied verbatim from SHR's published documents.
