Debate
Renters’ Rights BillContribution
The noble Lord, Lord Pannick, raised the issue of the ECHR. The Government have set out their ECHR analysis in their published ECHR memorandum. The tenancy reform measures in this Bill engage A1P1 rights of landlords. They constitute a control of use of the landlord’s property and are justified in their pursuit of the important aim of improving the security of tenants. The restrictive period is an important element for preventing misuse by landlords of the possession grounds.
