A landlord licensing scheme in Nottingham has so far
managed to issue full licences to fewer than three per cent of the applications
received. In August 2018, Nottingham City Council introduced a Selective
Licensing Scheme across many parts of the city as a key part of its efforts to
address the quality and management of private rented housing. Figures provided
to the Council’s Overview and Scrutiny Committee however show that by August
2019, whilst 17,523 applications for a licence had been received, just 472
final licences had been issued. The council estimates a total of 24,000
applications are eventually likely to be received. Read more on the RLA
