General Election 2024
General Election Hub
On 22 May, Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak MP, announced that a general election (GE) will take place on 4 July.
Parliament ended before the Renters (Reform) Bill could complete its passage, meaning it will not become law. It will now be up to the next Government to decide what shape reform of the private rented sector will take.
As political parties publish their manifestos and set out their vision for the private rented sector (PRS), we will regularly update this hub to keep you informed. We will also publish the NRLA’s own key asks for the PRS - a bold vision to boost rental supply, retain landlord confidence, and ensure accessible justice for both landlords and tenants.
