Why we are engaging with North View Housing Association Ltd (North View)
We are engaging with North View about its Governance.
North View failed to notify us in accordance with regulatory guidance on Notifiable Events about weaknesses in the management of its services to factored owners. North View has recently completed an improvement plan to address the issues identified.
North View’s Management Committee has decided to commission an independent governance review to assess North View’s compliance against the Regulatory Standards of Governance and Financial Management (Regulatory Standards), which will include compliance with our regulatory guidance on Notifiable Events. We are engaging with North View as it progresses the governance review. North View is engaging openly and constructively with us.
