Head of Regulatory Affairs
3 weeks ago
Position Overview
The regulatory team, situated within the Strategy and Regulation Division, is tasked with the statutory oversight of Welsh registered social landlords (RSLs) on behalf of the Welsh Ministers. RSLs play a crucial role in achieving the housing objectives set for Wales.
RSL Sector Insights
• Welsh RSLs manage a substantial number of homes, with projections indicating growth by 2027.
• A significant portion of RSL expenditure, approximately 85%, is allocated within Wales.
• The sector boasts a turnover exceeding substantial figures.
• Fixed asset valuations are noteworthy.
• A new debt facility of £575 million was established in 2021.
• Future borrowing forecasts indicate growth by 2027.
• The sector supports around 27,000 jobs in Wales, with 11,000 directly employed.
• The Welsh Government is investing over £300 million in social housing grants, alongside various other funding initiatives.
• It is estimated that for every £1 of Welsh Government funding, significant returns are generated.
• RSLs provide homes and services to over 200,000 tenants and residents.
The primary aim of regulation is to safeguard tenants and protect significant public investments in the RSL sector across Wales. Effective regulatory practices also ensure that the sector remains appealing to private investors, facilitating cost-effective funding to complement grants for new social housing developments.
