Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
What recent assessment he has made of the effect of the cost of housing on trends in the level of evictions.
This question was answered on 5th November 2018
Government keeps rent levels and numbers of evictions under review. We are taking steps to make renting more affordable and more secure. In the private rented sector, we have recently consulted on overcoming the barriers to longer tenancies and we have committed to ban letting fees and cap tenancy deposits.
