What the notice says

Currently for a property to be eligible to be a HMO, the landlord of the property needs to have a licence and pay the relevant fees accordingly. However there is an increasingly large number of HMO’s that are unlicenced, and the Housing Standards team are responsible for identifying these properties. The work is reactive and usually relies on some intelligence reported either by local residence, or other bodies such as the police or fire department. The service are looking to be much more proactive in identifying properties which could potentially be HMO’s, through the use of a tool or service which looks at an array of data which could indicate that a property is indeed a HMO. The service understands that many other councils have started using 3rd party service providers/software for this identification, and are keen to explore the market accordingly with the essential functionality listed below: The system will have appropriate access controls to ensure that it will be accessed only by legitimate users and must have security controls commensurate with the stated confidentiality, integrity and availability impact levels.
