      Response

      Q1 and Q3 to Q9 - see attached spreadsheet.

      Q2 - complaints are not categorised against PRS or Social Housing so we cannot report on this. However the amount of complaints received regarding social housing is very small as they have their own reporting and complaints procedure (tenants report complaints to their own Registered Provider. The two biggest Registered Providers in the borough are Orbit and Optivo).

      Hastings Council does not have its own housing stock.
