Second phase of Awaab's Law laid before Parliament

Summary of the article

CIH welcomes the next stage of the proposed hazard-response requirements and describes the wider significant-hazard groups intended to be covered. Its announcement also draws attention to more detailed guidance on communication, triage, property access and written summaries.

The article connects those changes with the government’s Test and Learn work and highlights process diagrams and practical examples. Gavin Smart’s comments emphasise residents’ experience, consistent implementation and collaboration with the sector.

This is CIH’s response to the parliamentary and guidance publications, not the legal instrument itself. Its use of “statutory guidance” needs the qualification below: MHCLG labels the Phase 2 landlord guidance non-statutory.
