answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/07/2017 answer text <p>The Government recently announced in the Queen’s Speech its intention to publish a draft bill to ban letting fees paid by tenants in England. A ban will mean that tenants are better able to search around for properties that suit their budget with no hidden costs. This is preferable to tenants being hit with upfront charges that can be difficult for them to afford. The approach taken in the draft bill will be informed by the recent public consultation, which closed on 2 June and received over 4,700 responses. These responses are being analysed. The Government will publish its response to the consultation in due course and further information on the draft bill will follow.</p> answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 10/07/2017 16:28:37 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma
