The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps she is taking to ensure buy-to-let mortgage products are available for landlords renting to vulnerable tenants.

Answered by Emma Reynolds

The Government welcomes innovation in the mortgage market and continues to work with the sector to improve housing provisions and the safeguards in place for the vulnerable.

The availability and design of buy-to-let mortgages is a commercial decision for lenders in which the Government does not intervene.
