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

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, whether he plans to ensure pre legislative scrutiny of the proposed Renters Reform Bill.

The Renters (Reform) Bill was introduced on 17 May 2023. Ahead of introduction, we undertook comprehensive consultation with stakeholders from across the sector and published the 'A Fairer Private Rented Sector' White Paper which outlined our reforms. The Bill will undergo legislative scrutiny during its passage through Parliament and we will continue to work closely with stakeholders.
