This year’s national report covers the period April 2020 to March 2021 and is the first full reporting year in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The SHR have also published the landlord reports and comparison tool. The landlord reports let you know how your landlord performed against the standards and outcomes of the Scottish Social Housing Charter last year. The Comparison Tool lets you compare your landlord’s performance with others.

Consultation Energy Efficiency Standard for Social Housing 2 indicators
The Scottish Housing Regulator is consulting on indicators to allow it to monitor and report on social landlords’ progress towards the Scottish Government’s EESSH2 milestone.
Last year the Scottish Government confirmed that the second EESSH milestone for social rented houses is to be met by 31 December 2032. The Regulator is now consulting on proposed indicators for the new milestone. Landlords would start to collect the new indicators during 2021/2022, with the first return to the Regulator in May 2022.
Michael Cameron, Chief Executive, said: “The Energy Efficiency Standard in Social Housing is a major contribution to ensuring tenants and their families have warm, affordable homes. Effective monitoring of progress towards the Standard is therefore an important priority for us. We’re keeping the number of indicators to a minimum and will aim to make the collection of the information as simple as possible.”
The Regulator is inviting views and feedback on its proposals from tenants, landlords, representative bodies, and anyone with an interest in social housing by Friday 15 January 2021.
