PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(9 July 2026)

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of the change in the Renters' Rights Act from fixed term tenancies to rolling, periodic tenancies on student HMO landlords.

Asked by:
Jayne Kirkham (Labour)

My Department engaged extensively with the student sector when developing the Renters’ Rights Act and its Impact Assessment received a green rating from the RPC.

We continue to monitor trends across the private rented sector and are conducting a robust evaluation of the impact of the Act. Evaluation reports will be published two and five years after implementation.
