My noble friend Lord Fuller was therefore right to challenge Amendment 202 and highlight the issues concerning the definition of “buildings occupied by students”. This amendment requires a clearer explanation from the Government Benches, and we hope the Minister listens to these concerns before Report. I also thank my noble friend Lord Fuller for his support for Amendment 7. We agree with him that the annual rhythm of students makes their situation unique. The Bill disrupts the ability of the market to satisfy the many students already operating in an overheated market.
