The UK government will introduce measures to simplify and reform the country's rental sector, with the Renters’ Reform Bill. The legislation will override Section 21 of the Housing Act, sometimes called “no-fault evictions”, and restrict the reasons landlords can remove tenants. The bill has been criticised, with landlords claiming they may leave the market and compliance costs could rise. There are at least 150 regulations governing the rental sector, according to property expert Phil Spencer.
