Welsh Government Prepares Legislation to Strengthen Tenant Rights
The Welsh government is preparing legislation aimed at strengthening the rights of private tenants. The proposed bill is expected to include further restrictions on no-fault evictions later in the current Senedd term.
First Minister Rhun ap Iorwerth included the proposed legislation in the first phase of the government’s new legislative programme. This was outlined in a statement to the Senedd.
Letting agents and inventory clerks in Wales should be aware that changes to tenant rights and eviction processes may be introduced as part of this legislative programme. Details of the initial legislation and its impact on the private rented sector have not yet been published.
