Written question asked by Andrew Rosindell (Conservative) on Tuesday, 1 March 2022, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Thursday, 3 March 2022. It was answered by Eddie Hughes (Conservative) on Wednesday, 9 March 2022 on behalf of the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities.


Private Rented Housing: Equity

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, whether his Department has made an assessment of the potential merits of taking steps to encourage landlords to offer housing credits or equity in the housing that they are renting to tenants.

Answer

We have not made an assessment of this. We are committed to giving tenants in the private rented sector greater security and will be publishing a White Paper later this Spring to set out more details on how we will abolish section 21 evictions that allow a landlord to evict a tenant without providing a reason.
