We expect all landlords to understand and comply with their legal responsibilities and the majority do so, providing decent and well managed homes. We want to support these landlords and avoid placing unnecessary burdens on them. We encourage landlords to improve their knowledge and professionalism, including their understanding of their legal responsibilities, by becoming a member of a landlord accreditation scheme, such as those run by the landlord associations or many local authorities. In addition, we have published guidance for landlords on, for example, their responsibilities under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System, which was introduced by the Housing Act 2004. A small minority of landlords exploit their tenants, placing them in unsafe and unsuitable accommodation. The Government is determined to crack down on these rogue landlords who have no place in the sector.<\/p>"}

It is estimated that around 500 households in Tottenham constituency will be affected by the lower benefit cap in 2016/17. The information on the number of households affected by the lower benefit cap in London, the London Borough of Haringey and Great Britain is available in the latest impact assessment published 25th<\/sup> August 2016: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/welfare-reform-and-work-act-impact-assessment-for-the-benefit-cap<\/a><\/p> <\/p>
The estimated number of children in households affected in Great Britain is available in the latest impact assessment above. It is estimated that around 1,200 children are in households affected by the lower cap in Tottenham constituency, 1,800 in the London Borough of Haringey and 41,200 in London.<\/p>
<\/p>
Information regarding Northern Ireland is a matter for the Northern Ireland Office.<\/p>
<\/p>
Notes:<\/p>
- Estimates assume no behavioural responses - any behavioural responses to the lower cap, such as claimants moving into employment, would cause the number of households affected to reduce.<\/li>
- Estimates of households and children affected have been rounded to the nearest 100.<\/li>
- The methodology used to estimate the households and children affected by the cap is consistent with that described in the latest impact assessment above.<\/li><\/ol>"}
