I urge the Government to reconsider this approach and to reaffirm the long-standing commitment to prospective lawmaking by providing clear commencement dates and reasonable transition periods for all new obligations, to protect both tenants and landlords from the risk of abrupt and unfair change. The approach will give landlords, tenants and letting agents time to adjust their practices. I urge the Government to stop, think and assess the damage that they could cause. With that, I beg to move.
