Wigan Council is proposing updates to its House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) standards and standard licence conditions.
The purpose of the updates is to ensure that our standards and licence conditions reflect the most recent legislation and guidance and are consistent with other authorities within the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA).
The updated conditions will provide greater clarity on expected conditions for licence holders, and greater protections for occupiers of HMOs.
We are seeking feedback before finalising the proposed updates, and your views may influence the final version.
The consultation commences on the 21st July 2025 and ends on the 19th September 2025.
A summary of feedback will be available following the end of the consultation period.
This consultation is now closed.
