Recommendation
The government must ensure that the private rented sector database includes, as a minimum, information on the condition and accessibility of privately rented properties, including details of previous enforcement actions, and the current rent and rent histories. Following the initial rollout, we recommend that the database is developed to provide tenants with guidance on their legal rights and enable them to report concerns to their local authority. (Recommendation, Paragraph 80)
