The legislation has long been stalled in the House of Commons.
Rishi Sunak has been urged by 30 charities not to abandon legislation that would ban no-fault evictions, as research suggests one renter is ordered to leave their home every three minutes.
Any delay to the Bill’s progress causes more avoidable hardship and suffering, and with it, greater cost to the taxpayer “Together we are calling on the Government to commit to progressing the Renters Reform Bill this Parliament, and to pass it into law as promised in the party’s manifesto.” The Bill was introduced to the Commons in May but no date has been set for its second reading so its progress can continue as time ticks down on the parliamentary session.
Angela Rayner, the shadow housing secretary and shadow deputy prime minister, suggested that “Tory infighting” and “weak leadership” from Rishi Sunak were behind the delay to the promised reforms.
