Deep dives

Impact of the Renter's Reform Bill on Housing Policies

The Renter's Reform Bill aims to ban no-fault evictions and shift towards more stable rental arrangements. Landlords now have more power to evict tenants for reasons like selling the property or allowing family members to move in. The bill faces criticism for watering down initial protections and concerns about overwhelming the courts with eviction cases. Labour's stance on banning no-fault evictions and the need for government support in implementing renewable energy policies highlight the complex interplay of politics and environmental challenges in the housing sector.
