An
Analysis
Into The Impact Of HMO Legislation (2008)
The
HMO legislation under the Housing Act is a key piece
of legislation controlling the private rented sector, it contains a
number of measures
that aim to protect the most vulnerable in society from sub standard
living
arrangements as well as creating a fairer housing market for landlords
and
tenants of residential property. The HMO legislation under the Housing
Act was
devised to strengthen the government's drive to meet its 2010 decent
homes
target. With the increasing numbers of people needing rented
accommodation in recent
years it is clear that the current legislation concerning aspects of
health and
safety needed to be revised. The revised housing act came into force in
April
2006 with the introduction of much tighter restrictions on
HMO’s.
