Homelessness
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of the ending of the Renters' Rights transition period on levels of homelessness.
Answered by Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government
The Government published its Impact Assessment for the Renters’ Rights Act on 22 November 2024, which can be found on gov.uk here. This found that the potential impact of the Renters’ Rights Act 2025 on levels of homelessness would be a reduction in the number of households at risk of becoming homeless and a reduction in homelessness duties owed.
