answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/07/2018 answer text <p>The ban on letting fees in Scotland was clarified in 2012. The private rented sector in Scotland has continued to grow and in 2016 made up 15 per cent of households compared with 13 per cent in the 2012 Scottish Household Survey. The Scottish Government estimate the number of letting agents currently operating in Scotland is around 1,700. This demonstrates that good and innovative agents will continue to have a market in which to thrive.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 23/07/2018 14:30:30 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak

uin	164402
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/07/2018 answer text <p>It is very difficult to understand the direct impact of the ban on fees on rental levels in Scotland since there are many different economic factors to take into account. Rents have risen on a cumulative basis no faster in Scotland since 2012 than in England and the sector remains healthy. According to ONS data, between 2012 and 2018, rents increased on average by 12 per cent in England compared to 6 per cent in Scotland.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 23/07/2018 14:32:01 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
