Ministers urged to introduce rent caps to tackle housing crisis in England
Briefly

Union leaders have pointed out that while the government's renters' rights bill makes progress by ending no-fault evictions, a lack of strong policy to address high rents remains a significant barrier.
They emphasize that failing to implement rent caps could exacerbate the housing crisis, causing millions to slip into poverty and homelessness, highlighting ongoing financial strains on councils and public resources.
The proposed solutions include devolving powers to metro mayors for rent cap implementation, suggesting that measured interventions could significantly alleviate pressures on the housing market.
