Debate
Renters’ Rights BillContribution
My Amendment 230A touches on access to the database for people with disabilities. This amendment would ensure that tenants with disabilities are provided with appropriate facilities by the database operator so they can access information relating to their tenancies. We should consider a range of options that ensure tenants with disabilities are not excluded from accessing critical information about their tenancies. Noble Lords will note that the Bill already includes a requirement to facilitate those who cannot or do not wish to use electronic devices when updating database entries, and we feel similar provision to facilitate access for disabled people would be an effective improvement to the Bill.
