Have you ever wondered how you can take part in the Council's decision-making process? Have you ever wondered how the governance arrangements for the company are structured and how this combines with our duties to consult? Well, if you have, this page is for you!

 

The foundations of CityWest Homes are built on the principle of sound governance and effective and established consultation procedures. From representation on the main board or through respresentation at one of CityWest's sub-committees, through to the statutory consultation mechanisms we have in place through Residents Associations, Residents Panels and a central Housing Panel.

 

Under Section 105 of the Housing Act 1985 (As Amended) the Council has a duty to consult on programmes of maintenance or a change in policy and practice which substantially affects all secure tenants or a particular group of secure tenants or homes. The structure chart detailed below highlights how consultation is undertaken within CityWest Homes and the Council. By clicking on the boxes on the consultation chart, you will be able to read more about each section of the chart.
