Reforming the private rented sector inquiry launches

The Government’s rental reform White Paper is to be scrutinized by the Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (LUHC) Committee following the launch of an inquiry this week.

The White Paper “A Fairer Private Rented Sector” was published in June. It contains proposals that would spell the biggest change to private renting in England in more than 30 decades.

This includes plans to convert Assured and Assured Shorthold tenancies into periodic tenancies, abolish section 21, and introduce new possession grounds for landlords.

The LUCH Committee has invited written evidence on any part of the White Paper. The deadline is 19th August 2022, with evidence sessions likely to be held in September.
