Written Question
Rented Housing
Monday 31st October 2022

Asked by: Lord Bishop of Southwell and Nottingham (Bishops - Bishops)

Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask His Majesty's Government when they plan to introduce the Renters Reform Bill; and, given the increase in mortgage costs may lead to tenants spending longer in rented accommodation, what consideration they have given to bringing forward their timetable for seeking to get the Bill passed.

Answered by Baroness Scott of Bybrook - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities)

Everyone deserves to live in a safe and secure home, and the Prime Minister is committed to the ban on section 21 no-fault evictions to protect tenants. Ensuring a fair deal for renters remains a priority for the Government. We will legislate in this parliament.
