UNISON welcomes the government’s plans to reform the private rented sector and calls on government to deliver reforms that give tenants more flexibility and stability of tenure.
UNISON will work alongside campaign groups, such as Generation Rent, and engage with the government to deliver a Renters’ Reform Bill that is in the interest of both landlords and tenants alike.
UNISON will:
- Respond to a Renters’ Rights Reform White paper when this is published.
- Respond to consultations on reforming tenancy law, abolishing Section 21 and improving security for tenants in the PRS and engage our members in this process.
- Engage in the legislative process when a bill on Reforming renting is formally introduced in parliament.
