The Renters Rights Bill
The Renters Reform Bill is currently going through the House of Lords
https://bills.parliament.uk/bills/3462#timeline
Its title is likely to be changed to The Renters Rights Bill.
This Bill was introduced by the previous Conservative government but was shelved due to the surprise of the early election date. The new Labour government has already committed to introducing the key parts of the Bill.
It will broadly include the following:
1. Ban on "no-fault" section 21 evictions.
2. Introduction of "Awaab's Law." This law is named after Awaab Ishak, who died after prolonged exposure to mould in a housing association property. The update will mean private landlords must follow a strict timescale to repair or remove hazards.
3. Ban on rental property bidding wars.
4. Tenants' right to pets in property.
There is no definite timescale for when the Bill will become law. But it is unlikely to be in 2024. The first half of next year seems more likely.
