    It is not within the remit of Housing Regulation Branch to deal with individual tenancy complaints.

    The Department requires associations to have in place a formal procedure for dealing with complaints. If you have a complaint relating to your tenancy you should in the first instance raise a formal complaint through this process.

    If, after having exhausted a registered housing association’s complaints process, you are unhappy about the way you have been treated by a Registered Housing Association you may complain to the Northern Ireland Public Services Ombudsman.
