    Unfortunately, Housing Associations operate under a different set of laws than private landlords. Ultimately, deal with this nuisance behavour the same way as you would if they owned the place. The landlord has no legal obligation to get involved, he is not their parent.

    And I guess if they owned their property you'd be really stuffed ;)

    Assuming you mean Private Landlord - except in Scotland, where he does have an obligation to get involved & if he fails to can be deprived of his rent (!!). Come on Engerland, keep up!!..
