How many people have applied for but been unsuccessful in joining your Seaside and Country Homes scheme in the previous three calendar years?

The criteria for your Seaside and Country Homes scheme states: “Applicants should have no rent arrears or history of anti-social behaviour, and should not be going through possession proceedings or being evicted.” Applicants are also asked to disclose any history of ‘anti-social behaviour’ on their form. I am concerned this policy risks exclusion in an arbitrary and unjust way. Could you explain a) how you define ‘anti-social behaviour’, b) what criteria is used to exclude someone as unsuitable for the scheme because of ‘anti-social behaviour’, and c) how is ‘anti-social behaviour’ investigated beyond applicants’ personal declarations?

In your 2024 manifesto, you said you will “support renters to take dodgy landlords to tribunals to get up to 24 months of rent refunded”. Can you tell me: a) how many renters have been supported and subsequently received a rent refund since May 2024, and b) how you intend to provide this support to renters, with the Renters Rights Bill soon bringing an empowered tribunal system into law?

A number of constituents at Sutton’s Wharf South estate in Tower Hamlets have contacted me about the appalling condition of their estate and apparent mismanagement by The Riverside Group housing association (formerly One Housing). Your latest delegated approvals log shows Riverside and One Housing to have been in receipt of £121 million from the GLA since 1 April 2023. How will you be holding your investment partner to account over their continued poor management of Sutton’s Wharf Estate?

In your 2024 manifesto, you said you would “act to hold all landlords to account on housing standards, including freezing any funding they receive from City Hall when necessary.” How have you used your leverage to hold landlords to account since your election?

In your manifesto, you committed to “back renters to defend their rights, with advice and guidance, including funding for groups such as renters’ unions.” During the May MQT meeting (2025/1723), you said you had invested over £11 million in services and organisations supporting Londoners to this end. But, since our conversation, you confirmed that none of this funding has gone to unions. When do you intend to start funding renters’ unions, and which unions will you fund?
