As part of their commitment to ‘levelling up’, in June 2022, the government published a white paper titled ‘A Fairer Private Rented Sector’, outlining plans for a Renters Reform Bill. This legislation, which was first announced by Theresa May as early as April 2019, is due to be introduced in the current parliamentary session and, if passed, will bring with it major changes for tenants and landlords. In fact, in its current form, the Renters Reform Bill seeks to fundamentally redress the power balance between landlords and tenants.
