Landlords Victory after Council Abandons Licensing Scheme

A landlords group has announced its "delight" after a council abandoned plans to introduce a city-wide selective licensing scheme. The National Landlords Association had been fighting against Milton Keynes City Council's licensing proposals through its local members. Last week, the council concluded that the scheme would not solve the issues of poor housing standards, anti-social behaviour and low housing demand in the area. The NLA is also celebrating the council's decision to cut the license fee on all houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) from £800 to £300. Read more on the NLA website.
