Responded Fri 13 February 20261. The total number of reports received by the council of damp, mould and condensation issues in council-owned homes since 1 January 2021. If you hold yearly data, please provide a breakdown by calendar year2.

Response
Please accept my apologies for the delay in responding.
1. Hastings Borough Council did a large scale voluntary transfer of its housing stock in 1996 and subsequently only owns a relatively small housing portfolio. Prior to the introduction of Awaab's Law, we did not collate data on damp and mould reports.
Since October 2025, we have logged 10 reports; 8 of these have been categorised as non-significant in accordance with Awaab's Law Guidance.
2. The council manages 125 council owned homes; this includes rooms within HMOs
