Renters’ Rights BillContribution
“the amendments made by the House of Lords, that threaten to weaken the Bill, are removed. These changes would water down rights in England’s least secure tenure and put survivors at greater risk. Halving re-let protections, increasing deposits for pets, and creating new repossession grounds all undermine stability and safety for survivors. The Bill must return to the Commons in its stronger form to deliver real security. Survivors must not be collateral damage in a Parliamentary compromise—the Bill is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to put housing, security and safety at the heart of renters’ rights.”
