Energy: Private Rented Housing
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps he is taking to support landlords to improve energy efficiency in the private rented sector.
Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh
The Government is now consulting on increasing minimum energy efficiency standards in the domestic private rented sector. The consultation sets out proposals on the maximum spend required from landlords and the exemptions regime to manage the cost burden placed on landlords and the impact on the rental market. We are considering how we can best support landlords to meet the new standards and welcome responses from landlords to the consultation.
