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

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, whether his Department made an assessment of the potential merits of increasing the time period during which landlords cannot apply mandatory grounds for repossession of the property beyond the first six months of the tenancy in the Renters (Reform) Bill.

I refer the Hon Member to the Renters (Reform) Bill Second Reading, debated on Monday 23 October (Official Report, HC Volume 738, Colum 630).
