The country’s leading landlord organisation is supporting
efforts to overturn a flagship immigration policy, saying its members won’t be
“scapegoats for the failures of the border agencies.” Under the Right to Rent

tenants with the prospect of prosecution if they know or have “reasonable cause
to believe” that the property they are letting is occupied by someone who does
not have the right to rent in the UK. Now, the Residential Landlords
Association (RLA) is supporting a Judicial Review of the policy being sought
today by the Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants (JCWI) which argues
that the policy discriminates against foreign nationals. Read more on the RLA
website.
