Question
How have rent controls in Scotland and the Republic of Ireland informed Welsh Government policymaking?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Climate Change
As part of our work on fair rents and affordability, the Welsh Government commissioned the UK Collaborative Centre for Housing Evidence to provide a briefing on examples of rent controls in other countries, which included Scotland and Ireland.
This briefing has helped to inform the development of a Green Paper Call for Evidence consultation on securing a path to adequate housing, including fair rents and affordability, which will be published shortly.
