Salford's approach to Licensing

Salford City Council has welcomed the provisions introduced under the Housing Act 2004 and fully intends to use the powers that are available to us.

Salford is working closely with all parties that have affected by the introduction of licensing, which includes:

Working In Partnership with Manchester City Council
Development of Landlord Licensing Working Group
Links with the Landlord Accreditation Scheme
Quarterly Landlord Forum, in conjunction with Landlord Accreditation and Local Housing Allowance Teams
Regular updates at Community Committee meetings
Presentations given at Peoples Forum
Involvement with Tenant Representative meetings

The Landlord Licensing Team have also produced a number of leaflets which are available to download from this page. These leaflets provide landlords, residents and tenants with guidance on the licensing schemes and the production of the newsletter is used to provide up to date information on both the Mandatory and Selective Licensing Schemes which have been introduced in Salford.
