Significant Performance Failures
If you are a tenant of a registered social landlord (RSL), such as a housing association or co-operative, or if you are a council tenant, you can report a significant performance failure (SPF) to the Scottish Housing Regulator (SHR).
A group of tenants or an individual acting on behalf of tenants, such as a representative of a registered tenants’ organisation, can also report an SPF to them.
Please see the SHR’s leaflet: Complain About a Landlord - Significant Performance Failures (Information for Social Landlord Tenants) to find out how to report a SPF.
