Serious concerns remain over damp and mould in homes owned by Rochdale Boroughwide Housing following the death of toddler Awaab Ishak.
An inquest last month found the two-year-old’s death was caused by a severe respiratory illness brought on by the conditions in the one-bedroom flat his family rented from RBH on the town’s Freehold estate.
RBH has since sacked Gareth Swarbrick as chief executive but the rest of the board remain in their roles. On Monday night three RBH directors faced questions from a council scrutiny committee on how they planned to prevent another tragedy.
