Back The Renters Reform Bill
The Renters (Reform) Bill is missing. Renters have been waiting since 2019 for the abolition of Section 21 and new figures published by the Ministry of Justice show that since the last time the Bill was discussed an estimated 5,891 more renters have faced eviction.
And yet, week after week, the government keeps delaying the next stage of the Bill. We can't wait any longer. With an election coming, we cannot let this bill be forgotten in the dash for the ballot box. The best way to ensure that we get rental reform right is by making sure MPs speak up for renters and ask them to demand the government carry on to the next stage of the Bill.
Please ask your MP to support the Renters (Reform) Bill, to ask the government to bring it back before Parliament and make sure we get renting reform right.
Generation Rent’s mission is that every home in the private rented sector is safe, secure and affordable.
