What information we require

As a regulator we require registered social landlords (RSLs) to provide certain standard information on a regular basis each year.

This includes:

• The Annual Performance and Statistical Return (APSR), which collects

- contextual statistical data such as information about stock owned; and

- information against particular performance indicators.

• Annual accounts

• Loan Portfolio information, which outlines data about an organisation’s private lending profile

• Five Year Financial Projections, from which we derive particular forward financial ratios and form a view about the future financial viability of each RSL;

We monitor progress towards the Scottish Housing Quality Standard for RSLs (via APSR) and Local Authorities (via Annual Returns).

In addition to these routine returns, we also have information which we gather through:

• Audits of improvement plans or other follow-up inspection work

• Inspection

• Thematic work

• Complaints and whistleblowing

• Notifiable events

We report much of our analysis of this information in its own right: it is also used in combination to inform regulatory engagement.

If you would like to submit a return on behalf of an RSL, you can access the on-line systems through those web pages or here:
