Delivering a New Deal for Private Renters in Northern Ireland (withdrawn)
That this Assembly expresses concern at the unaffordable rents, lack of long-term security and inadequate protections for tenants in our private rented sector; recognises that many private renters face a constant struggle to keep a roof over their heads, afford daily essentials, or access the basic repairs necessary to make their homes habitable and safe; and calls on the Minister for Communities to deliver a New Deal for private renters, including measures to ensure every tenant has access to an affordable and high quality place to call home.
