We do not have any plans at present to bring forward legislative changes to the Equality Act. The Government appreciates the problems that housing benefit claimants can sometimes face in finding accommodation in the private rented sector. We strongly encourage landlords and agents to look at all potential and existing tenants claiming housing benefit on an individual basis and published a new How to Let guide on 26 June to help landlords better understand their rights and responsibilities. At present, the English Housing Survey Headline Report 2016-17 (published February 2018) shows that 22 per cent of households privately renting are in receipt of housing benefit. This suggests that it is possible for claimants to access the sector.<\/p>
A number of other MHCLG policies work to combat discrimination and unfair practices. These include the introduction, in April 2018, of banning orders and a rogue landlord database designed to remove the worst landlords from the sector. On 2 July we launched a consultation seeking views on how to overcome the barriers to longer tenancies to ensure that all tenants have the security that they want and need. Further, since October 2014, all letting and managing agents in England have been required to belong to a Government approved redress scheme, giving tenants access to free dispute resolution where problems, including those related to discrimination, occur in relation to their agent.<\/p>
In addition, we are committed to regulating letting agents and requiring them to meet minimum training standards and comply with a code of practice, which will include treating all tenants equally. We will also require all landlords to be members of a redress scheme to ensure that all tenants, not just those who use agents, have access to quick and easy dispute resolution when things go wrong. Our eight week consultation on strengthening redress in housing closed on 16 April. We are analysing responses with a view to publishing a Government response in the Autumn.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4057", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Nigel Adams"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Selby and Ainsty"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Nigel Adams"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-07-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-07-19T14:15:30.997Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "7"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Housing, Communities and Local Government"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Housing, Communities and Local Government"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-07-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Private Rented Housing"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of potential merits of bringing forward legislative changes to the Equality Act in order to ensure that claimants of housing benefit and universal credit are able to access accommodation in the private rented sector similar to such provisions in the Republic of Ireland.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/207", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Vince Cable"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Twickenham"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Sir Vince Cable"} ], "uin" : "162961"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/938671", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Work and Pensions"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/938671/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
In December 2017, and as announced as part of the budget measures, we made changes to the guidance to ensure that when Private Sector Housing Benefit claimants move on to Universal Credit, we know whether they had their rent paid directly to their landlord previously, and why. This allows our work coaches to determine whether a managed payment to the landlord for the Universal Credit claim may need to be applied too, and will prompt a conversation with the claimant.<\/p>
<\/p>
We changed the process following a request for an Alternative Payment Arrangement (APA) for Managed Payments to Landlords from Private Rented Sector Landlords. This means that following a landlord\u2019s request for a Managed Payment to Landlord, the claimant has seven days to provide proof that the rent arrears do not exist, or give a good reason why the Managed Payment should not be put in place. If the claimant does not take action, then the landlord\u2019s application will be approved and we will inform the landlord of the final decision of the APA request. The change in process has considerably simplified and sped up the APA request for landlords. We have retained a safeguard for the claimant to challenge the APA request e.g. where the claimant is in dispute with the landlord.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4105", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Justin Tomlinson"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "North Swindon"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Justin Tomlinson"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-07-16", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-07-16T16:36:00.85Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "29"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Work and Pensions"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Work and Pensions"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-07-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Universal Credit: Housing"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, with reference to paragraph 6.14 of Autumn Budget 2017, what progress has been made on making it easier for claimants to have the housing element of their award paid directly to their landlord.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/207", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Vince Cable"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Twickenham"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Sir Vince Cable"} ], "uin" : "162962"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/938672", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Work and Pensions"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/938672/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Because of the new digital approach in Universal Credit, and because communications can be instantaneous, we can, for the first time, offer a system of explicit consent which is easy to use, fast, efficient, and completely secure. Claimants can provide explicit consent by making an entry in their online journal, this includes consent required to provide a landlord with information regarding the outcome of their universal credit award decision.<\/p>

The Government recognises the importance of safeguarding the welfare of people who are in debt. The aim of the Universal Credit deductions policy is to protect vulnerable claimants by providing a \u2018last resort\u2019 repayment method to recover arrears of essential services. The deduction of rent arrears in Universal Credit is intended to protect the current tenancy and prevent vulnerable claimants from being made homeless.<\/p>
