The Welsh Housing Quality Standard

 

What is the WHQS?

 

Cup of TeaThe Welsh Assembly Government believes that everyone in Wales should have the opportunity to live in a good quality home within a safe and secure community. To help achieve this, the physical standard and condition of existing housing must be maintained and improved to the Welsh Housing Quality Standard. 

 

The Assembly Government expects all social landlords in Wales to adopt the Standard and to devise realistic programmes for bringing all their properties up to it by the end of 2012. The Standard is intended to help social landlords assess their housing stock
