Should EICR be mandatory for all social housing in England?
Some things to note might be
(PRS) Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 required an EICR every 5 years OR change of tenancy. I think most people forget the change of tenancy part.
Moving forward a lot of EICRs should now start to be expiring thus a new one will need to be issued after an Inspect and Test.
There have been noted cases when local councils have not done EICRs
