Renters Reform Bill
The Renters Reform Bill, introduced in May 2023, is set to reshape England’s private rental sector. The bill has faced delays, largely due to political shifts, including a change in government. Initially introduced under a Conservative administration, the Labour government, which has taken over, remains committed to key reforms, particularly ending “no-fault” evictions.
The bill responds to growing concerns over tenant security and aims to modernise rental laws, providing stronger protections for tenants while placing new obligations on landlords. Despite its tenant-focused goals, the reforms could bring challenges for landlords, making it a pivotal piece of legislation for both sides.
