If they do not present an immediate danger, then landlords must:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Investigate within 10 working days<\/li>\n<li>Provide a written summary of the issue and what they intend to do within 3 working days<\/li>\n<li>Carry out any urgent safety work within 5 working says of the investigation<\/li>\n<li>Begin any longer-term repairs within 12 weeks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Housing secretary, Steve Reed, said: \u201cAwaab\u2019s Law sends a clear message that tenants\u2019 health and safety can never be compromised. This action will mean dangers have to be dealt with quickly by law, protecting tenants\u2019 rights to a safe and decent home.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>CIH welcomes the new law<\/h3>\n<p>The Chartered Institute of Housing has welcomed the law laid before parliament, in a statement saying: \u201cThis represents an emerging policy area, and we welcome the government&#8217;s recognition that this is an area where the sector and government will need to learn together. As with Phase 1, government has confirmed it will take a test-and-learn approach to implementation and welcomes ongoing feedback to help refine the guidance as it beds in.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe appreciate that bringing seven hazards into scope simultaneously is a significant step and that there will be learning for the whole sector as the regulations and guidance are applied in practice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are committed to continuing an open and honest dialogue with government and the sector throughout the test-and-learn period, so that it delivers for residents and landlords in practice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gavin Smart, chief executive of the Chartered Institute of Housing, commented on the announcement: &#8220;The extension of Awaab&#8217;s Law to these hazards is an important step towards safer, healthier homes for social housing residents. We welcome the collaborative approach government has taken, and the improvements made to the guidance in response to the sector&#8217;s input.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a significant and complex undertaking and getting it right in practice will require continued partnership among government, landlords, residents, and sector bodies. CIH is committed to supporting our members to understand and deliver these new duties, and to feeding back openly throughout the test-and-learn phase so the guidance continues to improve.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a person-centred piece of policy this is more than compliance; it is also about a culture of listening and acting on residents&#8217; concerns, and that is the work still ahead of us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Full, current information on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/awaabs-law-guidance-for-social-landlords\/awaabs-law-guidance-for-social-landlords-timeframes-for-repairs-in-the-social-rented-sector\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Awaab&#8217;s Law can be found here.<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Awaab&#8217;s Law phase 2 has been laid before parliament, describing new laws for social landlords and needing to quickly remediate more dangers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":163634,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[306],"tags":[173173,173010,276,432,570],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-163629","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-building-control-news","8":"tag-awaabs-law","9":"tag-construction-crime-and-law","10":"tag-government","11":"tag-health-safety","12":"tag-social-housing"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Awaab\u2019s Law Phase 2 laid before parliament<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Awaab&#039;s Law phase 2 has been laid before parliament, describing new laws for social landlords and needing to quickly remediate more dangers\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/building-control-news\/awaabs-law-phase-2-laid-before-parliament\/163629\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Awaab\u2019s Law Phase 2 laid before parliament\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Awaab&#039;s Law phase 2 has been laid before parliament, describing new laws for social landlords and needing to quickly remediate more dangers\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/building-control-news\/awaabs-law-phase-2-laid-before-parliament\/163629\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
