Labour (Co-op) — Vauxhall and Camberwell Green

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 January 2025

Debate

Renters’ Rights Bill

Contribution

I thank the Minister for the work he has been doing. He highlighted the issue of tenants being asked to pay up front. In my constituency and many other London constituencies, that up-front cost amounts in some cases to a deposit to purchase a home. Does he agree that we need to look into that issue and into estate agents effectively getting tenants to bid against each other for private rented accommodation?
