He continued that he was "delighted" that all of its rented homes across the Midlands had met the standards "well ahead of time".

However, he went on to say that the organisation would not be complacent and would continue its commitment to the long-tem maintenance of the homes.

"In 2005 alone, hundreds of homes were upgraded with modern kitchens, energy efficient boilers and new electrical wiring," Mr Taylor told the website.
