With key changes to housing practices coming in to force in May 2026 under the Renters’ Rights Act 2025, Local Authorities will have greater powers than ever before to become the enforcers of these new measures. With the aim of seeking to improve standards and practices in the private rented sector, Local Authorities must start preparations now in order take decisive action where needed.
During this webinar, Sarah Orchard and Kate Hicks gave detail on:
- Strengthened local housing authorities’ enforcement powers
- Breaches and offences
- Means of investigation
- Expanded financial penalties
- Necessary changes to enforcement policies
This webinar recording will be of interest to housing teams, private landlords, those working in environmental health, enforcement officers, ASB officers, and directors or heads of housing.
