Goal and impact

In 2020, the Municipality started developing a model that can use data to support the detection of illegal subletting of social housing. For the model, domain experts have compiled indicators that may be related to illegal subletting of social rented housing. These indicators were carefully compiled and checked for possible bias and discrimination, among others. Based on data, the model automatically checks which of these indicators are present at an address. These possible indicators are shown as points of interest for supervisors. Supervisors retain their own autonomy and decide for themselves whether to investigate an address further. No enforcement will ever follow directly from the model. Indeed, enforcement can only take place if an enforceable situation has been found on the spot. Due to various circumstances, the development of this model has been on hold for quite some time. It is therefore not yet deployed and data has only been processed in a test phase. No decisions have yet been made or activities undertaken based on this model. The moment the model does start being deployed, a broadly defined process will be in place in the registry.

Considerations

The model automatically checks from data which of these indicators are present at an address. These possible indicators are shown as points of interest for supervisors. Supervisors retain their own autonomy and decide for themselves whether to investigate an address further. No enforcement will ever follow directly from the model. In fact, enforcement can only take place if an enforceable situation is found on the spot.
