- not reported its performance annually to its tenants or has reported it inaccurately; or
- does not meet our regulatory standards for how an RSL should govern itself and manage its finances; or
- has not met any performance improvement, governance or financial management targets we have set it in their Engagement Plan.
Some examples of serious concerns are:
