Following the successful outcome of the ballot at our Special General Meeting on 17th September, which saw 88% of votes cast being in favour of Rosehill adopting new rules and changing its name to Rosehill Housing Association Limited, we are pleased to announce that the Financial Conduct Authority has now approved and registered our new rules and our name change.
We have notified the Scottish Housing Regulator of the changes and we are just waiting to hear from the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator about our registration with it.
As we advised during the engagement process with our members/tenants, nothing changes on a day-to-day basis:
- The tenancy agreement remains unchanged, tenants will still have the same rights and responsibilities;
- The services we currently provide e.g. repairs service, remain the same;
- Our office will still be at 250 Peat Road;
- Our staff team remains the same;
- Tenants’ membership of Rosehill will continue. (However tenants will now have the choice to stay a member or cancel their membership without affecting their tenancy agreement);
- Existing members of the Management Committee will remain in their roles.
