Text

I thank the Minister for his response. Awaab’s law, which is part of the Social Housing (Regulation) Act 2023 in England and Wales, requires social landlords to fix dangerous damp and mould within set timescales and to address all emergency hazards within 24 hours. It will come into effect in October 2025, with His Majesty's Government also consulting on extending it to the private rented sector. Will the Minister be following that course of action?
