Renters (Reform) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Alex Sobel (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 October 2023. It occurred during Debate on bills on Renters (Reform) Bill.

One of my constituents was served with a section 21 no-fault eviction notice on their house: a single parent to two vulnerable children with additional needs whom she had adopted from care after being removed from a situation of domestic abuse. She could not afford to rent any other private property on her single income as she found them to be far too expensive. She has been left to join the council waiting list and been rendered homeless. Is that not exactly why we need to deal with this issue in the Bill?
