Renters’ Rights BillContribution
New clauses 17 and 18 would remove unnecessary barriers to the use of licensing schemes to improve housing standards. This matters because private renters often face terrible conditions. Constituents tell me about mould and damp, shorting fire alarms and electrics, rat infestations and, recently, student renters being left without a working boiler for a whole month. I could go on.
