Housing Regulator launches early version of new website
Users can provide feedback on new website via a short survey.
The Scottish Housing Regulator (SHR) has launched an early version of a new website and is looking for feedback.
The new site is in a test, or ‘beta’ phase. The SHR said that this means “it is still a work in progress” and that it is “designed to be easy to navigate, to work well with different devices and to be accessible”.
Iain Muirhead, the SHR’s Director of Digital and Business Support, said: “Our website is the main way people find out about our work. It’s important that tenants and landlords can find the information they need easily.
“We’ve designed the website to be accessible and simple to navigate. As it’s a test version, we know it won’t work perfectly yet. And we’ll be adding more material to it over the coming months.
“We want to hear what people think at this stage, to help us make improvements before we launch it fully.”
The launch comes shortly after the introduction of the new Regulatory Framework. The framework and suite of related guidance are available on the site.
There’s a short, simple survey on the site that can be accessed from the top right corner of any page so that users can provide feedback.
The beta phase will run until early June. The regulator’s existing website will continue to operate until the full launch of the new site later in the year.
The regulator’s new site is available at https://beta.scottishhousingregulator.gov.uk/ and can be accessed from the Regulator’s existing site www.scottishhousingregulator.gov.uk
