  • Nigel Phethean of the Campbell Tickell consultancy was co-author of the Housing Corporation publication “With the Best of Intentions: Learning from Problem Cases III”.  He will alert us to the warning signs of failing governance.
  • Andrew Townsend, Chief Executive of TIAA Ltd will be present to hear your views on the HIAF Internal Audit Programme Guides and ideas for the future.
  • Rafael Runco is the Deputy Housing Ombudsman, and will highlight those issues that give rise to greatest complaint by our residents.
  • The Directorate of Housing Strategy and Support within the Department for Communities and Local Government is responsible for the development of government housing policy and strategy in a number of housing management areas, including choice based lettings.  A speaker from the Division will update us on the future direction of this very topical issue.
