(asked on 13th April 2017) - View Source
Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to paragraph 3.22 of the Spring Budget 2017, what his proposals are on the redesign of rent-a-room relief; and when he plans to consult of those proposals.
This question was answered on 24th April 2017
Rent-a-room relief was first introduced to increase the quantity and variety of low-cost rented housing, giving more choice to tenants and making it easier for people to move jobs.
The consultation, which will be published in due course, will explore the most effective changes to better align the relief with its original purpose.
