Wednesday afternoon’s legislative session saw a heated discussion about a new government-proposed clause that would postpone abolishing Section 21s until after the legal system had been reviewed.
Tenants who rent their homes are left in a state of uncertainty as landlords can evict them without giving a cause through the legal mechanism known as a Section 21 notice.
When Theresa May was still in Number 10, five years ago, the government made a first commitment to outlaw the notices.
However, it has had multiple setbacks due to insurrectionary threats from Tory backbenchers, including landlords, who expressed their fear of it ending.
