Co-operative Housing Ireland (formerly NABCO) is among the 212 Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs) who have signed up on a voluntary basis for regulation by the interim Regulation Office at the Housing Agency and it therefore comes under the remit of that office. It is a matter for the interim Regulator to focus on individual AHBs and it would not be appropriate for me to comment on individual regulatory matters.
In September 2015, the Government approved the drafting of the Housing (Regulation of Approved Housing Bodies) Bill 2015 with a view to establishing an AHB Regulator on a statutory basis.
