Energy: Conservation
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, with reference to his Department's press release entitled Home upgrade revolution as renters set for warmer homes and cheaper bills published on 23 September 2024, what account the Regulatory Impact Assessment for the changes to Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards will take of the Renters' Rights Bill.
Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh
We have announced our intention to publish consultations on increasing minimum energy efficiency standards in the private rented sector and the social rented sector by the end of the year.
DESNZ and MHCLG are working closely together to take account of the impact of MEES and the Renters’ Rights Bill on the private and social rented sectors. The impact of potential changes to the wider policy landscape for private and social landlords will be considered in the respective Impact Assessments.
