Tenant Services Authority

The Tenant Services Authority (TSA) was the operating name of the Office for Tenants and Social Landlords,[1] the former regulatory agency of registered providers of social housing in England.

On 1 December 2008 the TSA first took over the regulatory work of the Housing Corporation, inspecting housing associations and responding to concerns.[2] Its remit was then expanded to regulate local authority housing, ALMOs and housing cooperatives from April 2010,[3] almost 1,800 providers.[4]

The TSA closed after the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) took over responsibility for the regulation of social housing from 1 April 2012.[5]
