Written Question
Rents: Appeals
Thursday 25th January 2024

Asked by: Philip Dunne (Conservative - Ludlow)

Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, whether he has made an estimate of the number of applications under the Section 13 process in the Renters Reform Bill in each of the first 3 years after its passage.

Answered by Jacob Young

We are working closely with the Ministry of Justice and the First-tier Tribunal so the courts and tribunals are fully prepared for the changes introduced by the Renters (Reform) Bill on the justice system.

Justice Impact Tests are internal Government documents and are not routinely published.
