The MHCLG has launched a consultation on widening
tenants’ access and reviewing the scope of offences that lead to inclusion on
the Rogue Landlords Database. The consultation will close on 12 October 2019. The
database contains information relating to housing offences committed by
landlords and property agents. Currently, local authorities must make an entry
if a landlord or property agent has received a banning order. However, they
have discretion on database submissions for offenders that have had two or more
civil penalties within a 12-month period. The database is currently only
accessible to local authorities as part of their enforcement strategy, but the
consultation is seeking views on widening this access to the general public.
