The Council’s Civil Penalties Policy will set out our approach of issuing financial penalties as an alternative to prosecution in for various offences that relate to housing conditions and standards. Fines of up to £30,000 can be issued and the policy describes the factors that will be considered in determining an appropriate penalty.
