What is TAG?
The overarching role of the Tenant Advisory Group is to hold Fareham Borough Council to account as a Landlord. The purpose of the TAG will be to lead on scrutinising and monitoring the Council's Housing services, decisions, and performance.
The group will be required to provide an annual update to the Housing Advisory Panel (formerly the Housing Scrutiny Panel) and will invite Housing Management Officers and Housing Adviosry Panel Members to meet and hear their recommendations.
Reports are taken to councillors to support transparent, informed decisions and ensure democratic oversight of local services. All reports are published to promote transparency.
If you're interested in understanding more and staying informed about Fareham Housing, you can view current reports submitted to the Housing Advisory Panel, as well as archived reports from the former Housing Scrutiny Panel.
