Guidance notes are issued by the Registrar of Community Housing to assist registered community housing providers to comply with the Regulatory Code.
Guidance notes aim to explain the Regulatory Code as interpreted and administered by the Registrar.
The purpose is to improve understanding of how the Regulatory Code may be applied in practice and to assist registered community housing providers in working with the Registrar. They do not seek to extend the Regulatory Code and they are not exhaustive.
The Regulatory Code itself should always be read and understood, as it constitutes the law. Guidance notes do not give or constitute legal advice. Where appropriate, registered community housing providers should obtain their own professional advice about compliance with the Regulatory Code.
Guidance Notes are available on:
