answer text <p>This Government has provided an unprecedented package of support to renters, and it has made a real impact. The vast majority - 91% - of renters are up to date with their rent.</p><p>However, we have kept in place longer notice periods of four months until the end of September, giving people who need it the time to agree a way forward with their landlord.</p><p>For renters who require additional support, financial measures remain in place. We have made available £140 million this year for local councils to help people pay their rent through Discretionary Housing Payments, and we extended the Job Retention Scheme and the £20 weekly uplift in Universal Credit until the end of September.</p> more like this
