RENTERS RIGHTS BILL DETAILS REVEALED

RENTERS RIGHTS BILL 

DETAILS REVEALED

The UK Government will today take steps to fulfil a key manifesto commitment by publishing a Renters’ Rights Bill with details of a new tenancy regime for England.

The Bill doubles the measures outlined in the previous Government’s Renters’ (Reform) Bill, which fell during the wash up sessions in the final days of the last administration.

If passed without amendment, the Renters’ Rights Bill would significantly overhaul the structure for private rented sector housing and repeal Section 21 alongside a number of other significant measures:

  • Removal of fixed term tenancies
  • A new more narrowly defined student ground
  • A single stage of implementation for the removal of Section 21
  • An expansion of Rent Repayment Orders
  • Fines to increase in line with inflation

The legislation will also introduce:

  • A new Ombudsman for landlords
  • A PRS Database
  • Protections against discrimination for tenants
  • Controls on rental bids and offers
