Renters’ Rights Bill

Proceeding contribution from Daisy Cooper (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 October 2024. It occurred during Debate on bills on Renters’ Rights Bill.

The hon. Member is making an excellent speech, and I am delighted to see that no-fault evictions will finally be banned. On the point about local government, does she agree with my party that it is imperative that local authorities are given the powers to regulate the numbers and locations of Airbnbs? We know that too many properties that are available for rent are taken out of the market for long-term renters and used for Airbnbs, because landlords can raise more money that way, and I think it is important that local authorities should have those powers.
