Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 April 2025

Debate

Renters’ Rights Bill

Contribution

While there is a provision for student landlords to regain possession from bona fide students at the end of the academic year using ground 4A, Amendment 41 in my name seeks to probe why this right is conditional on a written statement being issued before the tenancy begins. Will the Minister clarify the purpose of this requirement? Surely, the right to recover a property should depend not on whether a letter was written but rather on the nature of the tenancy itself.
