Mr Robert Tamburrini the Director is a Controversial figure. He is one of the highest paid Director of a Housing Association in the United Kingdom. His 2008 emoluments (salary plus perks) was £93,218.00. This was an inflation busting increase of 14.3%..March 2008
Throughout his tenure, he has shown a "relaxed" attitude towards Drug Dealing and abuse within his properties. This was summed up by witness who heard him express the view that “as long as a tenant pays his rent on time that’s a good tenant”.

Furthermore, he has shown scant regard for hiring M & M Security a company run by the McGovern crime family. The North Glasgow Housing Association was one of the first companies to award a contract to this firm giving an undeserved legitimacy to this business. (Scotland on Sunday, October 24 th, 2004) According to former Chief Superintendent Tom Buchan, “These firms like … M&M have links with some of Scotland ’s big criminal families.”

Although the Governing Body or Management Committee is supposedly in charge, the real authority on the committee is the Director. No policy or action can occur without his approval.

It was widely reported in the media (Sunday Mail, 5th March 2006) that Mr Tamburrini used "Tax Payers cash" to try and close down a web site because he claimed a photograph of him made him look "Unprofessional and Lazy".
