The latest debate over the Renters’ Rights Bill has brought attention to concerns frequently raised by our members, as Peers strongly echoed our longstanding warnings that the Bill risks putting the justice system under pressure following the removal of Section 21.

Propertymark has submitted a response to the House of Commons Public Bill Committee's call for evidence on the Bill, focusing on key areas that affect the property sector, particularly anti-social behaviour (ASB) and the protection of vulnerable tenants from exploitation such as cuckooing and county lines activity.
