Labour Party Calls For Scrapping Of Section 21 And Renters’ Unions

In his speech to the Labour Party Conference John Healey called for a wide range of reforms to the private rented sector, including the establishment of renter’s unions, the introduction of rent controls, and the scrapping of section 21. The plans aim to put power in the hands of tenants through the creation of a £20m fund to set up and support the expansion of renters’ unions which will:
• Provide practical support and information, including experienced representatives accompanying tenants to meetings with landlords
• Support tenants in disputes with landlords
• Give renters a stronger national voice and coordinate national campaigns to demand better conditions and a fairer system.
