The Welsh Government is undertaking a consultation on an update to the Welsh Housing Quality Standard.

All social homes across Wales, owned by housing associations like ateb and local councils that are let to tenants are required to meet certain conditions.

The existing Welsh Housing Quality Standard requires updating to reflect changes to how people live, work and feel about their homes, and to include the decarbonisation of the Welsh social housing stock.

You are invited to take part in the voluntary consultation and share your views. It is your opinions and experiences that are important to help shape and inform future Welsh Government policy.

The consultation includes 25 questions. You do not have to answer all of them if you don’t feel strongly or they are too detailed.

If you would like to participate please follow the link to the consultation:

There is also an Easy Read version of the standard which can be found here:

The consultation will be open until 3 August 2022.
