LIVE: Latest from Luke Brooks inquest day three after court told death was 'linked to mould'
Ms Collier says the area has a ‘high tenancy turnover’, which is why it was selected for the scheme. “Selective licensing gives us greater powers with regards to management conditions,” she said.
“It may be that we need to communicate with the landlord about that property.” Asked why not make all Oldam eligible, Ms Collier says it’s supposed to be ‘selective for areas causing these issues’. Ms Collier says the only powers the council have under selective licensing is to audit the property for licensing compliance. It’s not the same inspection as an EH inspection, but Ms Collier says concerns about defects and disrepair would be referred for an official EH inspection.We are now hearing evidence from Joanne Collier, who works in Oldham Council’s environmental health team. She manages the team involving disrepair and selective licensing for landlords.
