Annual Assurance Statement Consultation (August 2025)
Every year, all Registered Social Landlords in Scotland must submit an Annual Assurance Statement to the Scottish Housing Regulator.
This statement is a formal declaration from our Committee of Management (Governing Body) to say whether:
- We are meeting all the regulatory requirements set out by the Regulator.
- We are complying with the law (like health and safety, tenant engagement, financial management).
- We have the right systems in place to govern the association and deliver good services.
The Scottish Housing Regulator uses this statement to make sure landlords are well-run and are providing safe, high-quality services.
The process of assessing compliance has to be continuous and the Committee of Management have to consider their assurance on an ongoing basis and highlight any areas of concern. This ongoing assurance consideration culminates in the product of the Annual Assurance Statement, which requires to be submitted to the Scottish Housing Regulator every year, by 31 October.
Pineview is committed to being an open and transparent organisation, and so although there is no legal requirement to carry out a consultation on the content of our statement, we think it is good to raise awareness with our tenants service users and to ask for feedback.
Our Committee of Management will consider their Annual Assurance Statement at their August Committee Meeting. The resultant draft Annual Assurance Statement will be taken to the September Customer Forum meeting to explain the proposal and seek feedback. The Committee of Management will then finalise their statement at their September Committee meeting and this will be submitted to the Scottish Housing Regulator.
We would like to invite you to get your feedback. You can do this either by attending the Customer Forum meeting (details below) or by contacting Joyce at our office to discuss – telephone 0141 944 3891 or e-mail mail@pineview.org.uk, or use the contact form on our website
Customer Forum meeting - Wednesday 10th September 2025 at 6pm in Pineview office.
