A government watchdog has found that at least three per cent of social housing properties have a 'notable' problem with mould and damp.
It follows a review of local authorities and housing associations, which manage more than four million homes across England, in the wake of the death of Awaab Ishak.
The toddler died aged two in December 2020 following prolonged exposure to mould at his family's home in Rochdale, after their social landlord failed to act for several months.
