Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether he plans to increase tenancy security for private renters.

The Government is committed to bringing in a Better Deal for Renters to deliver a fairer and more effective rental market for both tenants and landlords. This will include reforming tenancy law to abolish Section 21 evictions, improving security for tenants in the private rented sector, as well as strengthening the grounds for possession for landlords when they have valid reasons.

A White Paper detailing this reform package will be brought forward in the Autumn.
