In order to arrive at the following assumptions, our board was involved in the review of the Association’s Assurance Report. The purpose of this report was to provide the board with a full assessment of all regulatory requirements and to act as a prompt for members in relation to the continuous evidence provided during regular meetings. This report was based on the SFHA toolkit which we evolved to include evidence mapping and a scoring matrix and to allow the board to fully assess compliance against all elements of the Regulatory Framework and the outcomes of the Scottish Social Housing Charter.
