Amount of property guardianship in your borough

The request was successful.

Dear Hillingdon Borough Council,

In accordance with the Freedom of Information Act, please could you
provide me with the below.

I am interested in the changes over time and would like to have information if possible from 2000-present.

Ideally, please could I have the amounts and costings for the years 2000/2001, 2009/2010 and 2017/2018.

1) The number of residential buildings owned, let or managed by
your council that are currently managed under property guardianship
schemes and the number of guardians living in the properties
2) The number of non-residential buildings owned, let or managed by
your council that are currently managed under property guardianship
schemes and the number of guardians living in the properties
3) The number of residential buildings currently managed by
property guardianship schemes in your area of which you are aware and the number of guardians living in the properties
4) The number of non-residential buildings currently managed by
property guardianship schemes in your area of which you are aware and the number of guardians living in the properties
5) The addresses of these properties and the company names of the
respective property guardianship schemes.
6) How much money has been paid by the council to property guardianship companies (or how much property guardianship companies have paid to the council if it is the other way around)
7) Why the council decided to use property guardianship companies.

Thank you very much for your help.

Yours faithfully,

Isabelle Ward
