Amendment 105 addresses the need for a review of the rent determination process. How can we be sure that this system will work as intended without conducting a thorough review of its impact? Are we prepared for the potential strain of this system on tribunals? I hope the Minister can assure us that tribunals will be truly equipped to handle the inevitable increase in rent reviews without disrupting the wider housing market. Amendment 105 would require the Secretary of State to conduct a review of the capacity of tribunals to handle increased applications and assess the potential impact on market rents. It is only through such a review that we can be assured that the system is functioning fairly and effectively.
