Thanks to Lord Cromwell for this important point during the #RentersRightsBill second reading. As @j_davies92 outlines, renting issues do not end just by giving renters new rights in law -we must support local councils to deliver enforcement effectively: ️
Crossbench peer Lord Cromwell made the point that to deliver for the most vulnerable renters, the bill must be accompanied by proper resourcing and enforcement to tackle rogue landlords who ignore the law. We're calling for stronger powers to prosecute illegal evictions. (6/8)

Over the last 5 years, 74 children tragically lost their lives with temporary accomodation playing a role. These heartbreaking stats from @Sharedhealthgm highlight the urgent need for safe, decent, permanent homes. Every family deserves more than just a roof over their heads.
'It is a national scandal that in a wealthy, modern country any child could die homeless.' With 161k children trapped in temporary accommodation, today's figures show the desperate need to build genuinely affordable social homes says Shelter's @pollyn1.

Great to hear about this key research into providing affordable private rented sector homes. Solutions need to be systemic and innovative, and we're excited to keep working together to drive change.
With the expertise of Homes England, @NationwideFdtn, @crisis_uk, British Property Federation, National & Local Government, @HomewardsUK, @Rentstart, London Councils & academia we’re working on tangible recommendations to help the PRS in tackling the UK's country's housing crisis

The #RentersRightsBill has now passed through the @HouseofCommons. It's a significant milestone, but changes to rental law are only the first step in rebalancing power in the PRS. In our latest blog @j_davies92 explores how the Bill should be implemented:

We’ll be paying close attention to the debate today and the crucial discussions that will shape renters’ futures. This Bill needs to be strong enough to provide security and support for all renters.

Thanks @PaulaBarkerMP for your #RentersRightsBill amendment to stop landlords from increasing rent higher than inflation or wage growth. While the bill will end S21 evictions, limits on in-tenancy rent increases are vital to prevent economic evictions.

Great to see this announcement under the upcoming #RentersRightsBill! Another positive step towards achieving real change for renters 🏠🙌
🚨 Good news!🚨The government have listened to our demands and will limit rent in advance to one month.🥳 As the Renters' Rights Bill moves forward we hope they will consider other key demands to strengthen it and deliver genuine security for renters.
