One of the things that even the approved housing bodies have said themselves is in the shift to source more social housing from that sector than has traditionally been the case, they are just not resourced to manage the problems that can come with a much bigger social housing stock, in terms of dealing with tenants' concerns, maintenance issues, anti-social issues and complaints, which are all things local authorities would be better resourced to do. Can regulation deal with this problem when, to some extent, it is a resourcing and staffing problem?
