The private rented housing panel (PRHP) will help tenants and landlords to find a solution if accommodation is not up to a certain standard.

Applying to the PRHP

If your landlord is refusing to carry out repairs, you may get help from the private rented housing panel (PRHP). This page explains what the PRHP is, who can apply and how to make an application.  

Taking your case to the PRHC

If your landlord won't do repairs, you can complain to the private rented housing panel (PRHP). If the application is valid, they will pass it to the private rented housing committee (PRHC).

How the PRHC enforces its decisions

If the private rented housing committee (PRHC) decides that your landlord is not meeting the repairing standard, it must take action to force your landlord to carry out the necessary work.
