There are too many consultations – and not enough action.
The accusation has come from the Residential Landlords Association.
It says there are currently 15 ongoing consultations which could affect the private rented sector – but not one will deliver more housing.
The RLA’s director of policy David Smith said: “Whilst it is right to properly consult on proposals, no tenant can live in a consultation.”
The RLA’s list is:
- Independent Review of Building Regulation and Fire Safety
• Universal Credit Experimental Statistics: Future Developments
• Planning for the right homes in the right places
• An Inspection of ‘Right to Rent’
• Call for Evidence on the Green Deal Framework
• Protecting consumers in the letting and managing agent market
• Homelessness code of guidance for local authorities
• Mandatory Client Money Protection schemes for property agents
• Future Role of Alternative Dispute Resolution
• Improving the home buying and selling process
• Clean Growth Strategy
• Cost of Energy Review
• Review of the Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm (England) Regulations
• Building A Market for Energy Efficiency
• Breathing Space
I haven’t experienced anything so nail biting like this since the last few minutes of the Man City v QPR title win

With Governments and Government bodies only paying lip service there is little of no point. Just tell landlords the truth they are not wanted and Government can then put its money where its mouth is and provide social housing rather than the usual mouthing off.
